Salobreņa, a wealth of culture, is also to be found in this beautiful tourist resort. The main historical part comprises developments that were built near to, or within, the wall that fortified the town in the Middle Age, rendering it one of the most impregnable fortresses of Al-Andalus.The original medieval structures are preserved in the delightful corners of La Loma, La Fuente, the Brocal and Albaycin quarters which twist in and out of the narrow streets with their bends, huge wooden doors, tiny windows, passageways and vaults.
Outstanding amongst the monuments and attractive places to visit are the Arab Castle, the Mohammedan Church of the Rosary, the Brocal Tower, the vault in the main square, the Floral Promenade and the vantage points of the Postigo and Albaycin areas. Don't forget to visit as well, the Archaeological Exhibition outlining the extensive history of the town through models, pottery, implements and revolving displays.
You can take a pleasant stroll through the Parque de la Fuente with its pond, gardens, tropical birds and children's playgrounds, or across the Rock of Salobreņa on the beach, originally a burial ground and now offering us a beautiful panoramic view of Salobreņa amongst the sugar plantations of the Costa Tropical.Of interest to visitors is the sugar cane factory itself, being the only remaining one in production in Europe. It houses a small museum and a model of the whole cane-sugar production process.
