Torremolinos Landmarks and Torremolinos Monuments
(Torremolinos, Costa del Sol, Spain)



Despite Torremolinos being a major coastal resort known for its modern high-rise hotels and sandy beaches, if you look a little further you will find that Torremolinos does actually offer a number of historical landmarks, monuments and old buildings.

One of the most famous remaining landmarks in the Torremolinos area is the Pimentel Tower (Torre de Pimentel), after which Torremolinos was actually named many years ago. Other landmarks of interest here include the San Miguel Hermitage and the striking Casa de los Navajas (House of Navajas), while the more modern Torremolinos Town Hall (Ayuntamiento) also deserves a mention. Here is some further information regarding the main landmarks and monuments in the Torremolinos area.




Torremolinos Landmarks and Monuments: Pimentel Tower / Watchtower (Torre de Pimentel) - Torremolinos, Costa del Sol, Spain
Known throughout the area, Pimentel Tower is one of the most famous landmarks in Torremolinos and stands alongside the main beachfront. Also known locally as the 'Torre Vigia', the tower is the town's namesake and was built in the 14th century as part of the area's defence strategy, being a notable lookout point. Today the tower has become a popular tourist attraction in its own right and the staircase can be climbed, offering superb panoramic views of the coastline from the top.
