A beautiful bronze coat of arms embedded in Ronda's paving stones, along with the coat of arms of Seville, depicts Hercules between two lions and the pillars of his mythical deeds. The inscription "Hercules fundator Gaditanorum dominatorque" refers to Hercules as the founder of Seville and ruler of Cádiz. A piece of mythology in the heart of Andalusia.

A very beautiful building

A very important pedestrian plaza in Ronda, it had to be completely restored after the War of Independence against the French. It houses important buildings, such as the Church of Socorro with its two bell towers, and the noble Casino building, where the congress was held a century ago and the Andalusian flag was created. Right in the center, the plaza houses a fountain depicting Hercules, columns, and lions alluding to the symbols of Andalusia, and behind it a sculpture in homage to Blas Infante.
