CLIENTS TESTIMONIAL

Villasol, all I can say is first class estate agents based in Nerja. From the initial enquiry to signing of the contract. I was very given great advice by Terry from start to finish. I had a very prolonged sale due to probate in the UK however the buyer's and villasol were very patient in waiting and the sale completed around a year after they agreed to purchase my apartment. Having known Terry and Karen for over 12 month's now I class them as a good friend's who I hope to visit again next time I'm in Nerja. Highly recommend, don't hesitate to give them a call.

The History of Nerja: A Tapestry of Ancient Treasures

 

Balcon De Europa, Nerja, Spain


Nestled along the stunning Costa del Sol in southern Spain, the town of Nerja is a captivating destination that holds a rich historical tapestry. From its ancient origins to the Roman and Moorish influences, Nerja's past is etched into its landscapes and structures. Among the notable landmarks that have played a significant role in its history are the Caves of Nerja, the Viaduct, and the castle that once stood proudly on the Balcon de Europa.

The story of Nerja's history stretches back thousands of years, with evidence of human habitation dating back to the Paleolithic era. Within the region, prehistoric cave paintings have been discovered, showcasing the presence of ancient communities who sought shelter and inspiration within the natural caves that dot the area.

One of the most renowned attractions in Nerja is the Caves of Nerja, a vast network of underground caverns. Discovered by a group of local boys in 1959, these caves have become a remarkable archaeological and tourist site. With formations of stalactites and stalagmites that have evolved over millions of years, the Caves of Nerja offer a surreal underground landscape that leaves visitors in awe. The archaeological excavations conducted within the caves have unearthed remnants of Paleolithic, Neolithic, and Bronze Age civilizations, providing valuable insights into the ancient cultures that once thrived in the region.

Moving forward in history, the Roman period brought significant changes to Nerja. The Romans recognized the strategic location of the town along the coast and established a settlement known as Detunda. Evidence of Roman influence can still be seen today, with remnants such as a fish salting factory and a mosaic floor near the Balcon de Europa. This iconic promenade, which offers breathtaking views of the Mediterranean Sea, was once the site of a castle that overlooked the town.

The castle that once stood on the Balcon de Europa played a vital role in Nerja's history. Originally constructed during the 9th century by the Moors, it provided a vantage point for defending the town. Over the centuries, it underwent several modifications under different rulers, including the Christians during the Reconquista. However, during the 19th century, the castle was tragically destroyed by British forces to prevent it from being used as a stronghold against them. Today, the Balcon de Europa stands as a scenic spot, a symbol of Nerja's resilience and a gateway to its captivating past.

Another remarkable structure in Nerja is the Viaduct, also known as the Aqueduct of Eagle's Nest. Built during the late 19th century under the reign of King Alfonso XII, this impressive bridge spans the River Chillar's ravine, connecting Nerja to the neighboring town of Maro. The Viaduct not only facilitated transportation and trade but also stands as a testament to Nerja's architectural ingenuity.

Nerja's history has played a pivotal role in shaping its identity as a cultural and tourist destination. The town's transformation from a fishing village to a thriving coastal town has been driven by its rich historical heritage. Today, visitors can explore the ancient wonders of the Caves of Nerja, marvel at the architectural feats of the Viaduct, and appreciate the remnants of the castle on the Balcon de Europa. As they delve into Nerja's history, they become part of a journey that connects the past with the present, offering a glimpse into the vibrant tapestry of this enchanting town on the Costa del Sol.
