The painter Pablo Picasso, the 19th-century Spanish politician Antonio Canovas del Castillo, and the actor Antonio Banderas were born in Málaga. The Cathedral in Malaga The Cathedral is itself an interesting mix of architectural styles (mainly renaissance & baroque) resulting from the 200 or so years it took to construct. It is built on the site of the Alijama Mosque, once the largest place of Muslim worship in the area; though deemed too small for Christian worship by Malaga's Catholic rulers. The Cathedral's interior is now home to many artistic treasures; including beautiful representations of the Virgin by various artists, wood carvings & more. Furthermore the old chapter house has been converted into a museum, housing yet more paintings & sculptures. ,
