Málaga
was founded by Phoenicians in the 12th century
bc and was at various times a Carthaginian, Roman,
and Moorish colony. Under the Romans, and especially
under the Moors, it developed into a strong military
station. It was captured in 1487 by Spanish Christians
after a heroic resistance. From 1810 to 1812 it
was held by the French. Its historic buildings
include a 16th-century cathedral and the ruins
of a Moorish fortress. The artist Pablo Picasso
was born in Málaga in 1881.
