The Muslims built a castle and surrounded the city with a powerful fence with three entrances or gates: &#8220;del Mar\", &#8220;de Ronda\" and &#8220;de M\u00e1laga\". Currently the Castle is preserved but the fence and gates have disappeared.<\/p>\n<p>Marbella was taken by King Fernando El Cat\u00f3lico on June 11, 1485 and this moment is represented in the choir stalls of the Cathedral of Toledo.<\/p>\n<p>After the Reconquest and throughout the 16th century, the urban structure of Marbella underwent important changes. The center of the Muslim &#8220;Medina\" (today the Old Town) was demolished to open a square (&#8220;Plaza Mayor\" or &#8220;Real\", today &#8220;Los Naranjos\") and a street (&#8220;Nueva\") to connect it with the \" Gate of the Sea.\"<\/p>\n<p>At that time the economic activity of our town was based on agriculture and livestock, although the sweet wine of which the English traveler Francis Carter (18th century, said: \u00abMarbella wine is very good; more dry and tastier than that of Malaga and with a certain flavor of Madeira. I am sure that if they prepared it well it would be highly esteemed in England, it would increase its price and thus encourage its inhabitants to be more careful with their vineyards\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>During the 19th century and with the installation of the first Blast Furnaces in Spain, in El Angel and La Concepci\u00f3n, to take advantage of the iron from the Sierra Blanca mines. Marbella joins the industrialization of Malaga, which becomes the second industrial province on the Peninsula.<\/p>\n<p>45 years ago Marbella was an agricultural town, with a mining industry and 10,000 inhabitants. Today there are more than 100,000 registered inhabitants apart from its floating population.<\/p>\n<p>From the 90s is when our city can truly be understood as a &#8220;Universal City\". The guidelines and policies of Jes\u00fas Gil as mayor of Marbella in the last decade of the 20th century mark an important milestone in our development. Infrastructures, Cultural Centers, Sports Facilities, Municipal Dependencies, Golf Courses, New Avenues, Parks, etc. and a sustained investment policy make Marbella a city desired by all and awarded in national and international forums for its safety, its cleanliness and that cordiality for which its people are distinguished.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\"
