Plaza de Toros is Ronda's foremost attraction It's located just off Plaza Teniente Arce, near the edge of the cliff, and is hard to miss. This is also one of the most famous and oldest bullfighting rings in Spain, completed in 1785 during a period when the sport was experiencing rapid changes due in large part to a family from Ronda.
Ronda's, and indeed Spain's, most popular bullfights are held at the beginning of September during the corridas goyescas, in which the 19th-century costumes immortalized by Goya in his painting of the Romeros, Tauromachy (a print of this work is on display in the bullfighting museum), are proudly worn, along with all the pageantry that accompanies the events. These fights were inaugurated by the Ordóñez family to correspond with the Fería de Pedro Romero.
