It’s one block up from the Museo Lara on the left; two blocks beyond is the Museo de Bandolero The Bandit Museum characterizes, or perhaps capitalizes on, Ronda’s old time reputation as a haven for bandits, those glorified carjackers of yore. Through the early 20th century they clamored to the Serranía (the mountainous area) de Ronda and the nearby Sierras of Grazalema to hide out in the natural caves; there they hoarded their bounties acquired in raids on the trading routes through Andalucía.
The bulk of the exhibition is devoted to written testimonials and documentation on the bandits and the myth spawned by the most famous among them. One hall is devoted to the Getarees, the police force formed to combat these trailway robbers that would later evolve into Spain’s modern day Guardia Civil.
