We visited the arena, because we wanted to learn about the history of bullfight from a cultural-historical perspective. We were shocked to learn that bullfights – the ritual killing of animals for entertainment – are being conducted in the area to this day. We were also shocked at the complete omission of an animal rights perspective. The museum offers very much content on “preserving heritage” and very little on the actual elaborate and utterly draconic killing ritual designed to maximize pain, that bullfighting is.

Plaza de Toros de Ronda is a bullring in Ronda. It is the first bullring in Spain. It's not a very tall building on the outside and you don't feel like you're going to see anything special. That's why everything surprises you and you have something to see.

Nice place to visit. The museum could lead you more info's about the stuff. But they were well arranged. It was great to see such a traditional building. It costs 9 € /person.

Interesting place to visit, even though I am not a supporter of bull fighting it was intriguing to look around and find out more about the history. It’s a very eerie atmosphere yet breath taking architecture at the same time.

The bullring admission allows you to tour different sections of the buildings including the riding school and bullring. There is also a small muesuem describing the history of the bullring and Ronda. The admission price is around 8 euros and it is probably the best attraction in Ronda other than hiking near the bridge. Would recommend visiting if you are in Ronda for multiple days

I’m not a fan of Bullfighting but decided to visit to keep my mind open. Nothing I saw here changed my opinions in fact it reinforced them. The audio guide also droned on & on & on and to be honest I found it all a bit tedious. Nice old venue though. They should just use it for something else these days instead of killing Bulls in unfair fights.

This is such a historic and significant monument to the Spanish culture of bullfighting. There are a number of reasons the tradition and culture of bullfighting play a role in the Andalusian region of Spains identity. The people of this region feel it would be a huge loss to ban something that has shaped their lives, family history, and culture over the past centuries. I was honored to spend time learning more about the history and culture of this regions people!!

The Bullring of the Royal Cavalry of Ronda is one of the oldest and most famous bullrings in Spain. It was built in the 18th century and is located in the heart of the city of Ronda, overlooking the Tajo Gorge. The bullring is a popular tourist destination and is home to a variety of events, including bullfights, concerts, and festivals. The bullring is a large, circular structure with a diameter of 66 meters. It is surrounded by a passage formed by two rings of stone. There are two layers of seating, each with five raised rows and 136 pillars that make up 68 arches. The Royal Box has a sloping roof covered in Arabic tiles. The bullring is a beautiful and historic building. It is a must-see for any visitor to Ronda. The bullring is also a great place to experience Spanish culture and tradition. Madonna also filmed her music video for Take a Bow here.

Really great place came here last year and would highly recommend, very historic and has indoor museum area.

One of the oldest and largest bull ring still in use in Spain. The place is a masterpiece of engineering en architecture made by the same person who designed the Ronda bridge. The place is full of history. The museum has nice artefacts that helps understand the history and bull fight traditions origin. It is a must see if you visit Ronda.

A very nice presentation of the arena and the history of bullfighting. We took the audio guide and we didn't regret it, at least they tell you a lot about each thing that is marked. If you are in Ronda, I definitely recommend a visit.

Absolutely amazing place to visit and learn about the rich history of Robda. Breathtaking views awesome food and people.

One of the very few (five?) active bull ring in Spain. You can visit the bull ring and it’s museum. One must stand at the center of the bull ring to really get a feel and scale of the bull ring.

Obviously, a bullring is not a museum, - there is one within its confines- but visitors can walk about it as if it were. Here the most beautiful and glorious pages of the world of bullfighting have been written. Opened to the public in 1785, it is one of the oldest and most beautiful in Spain. Truly worthy of a visit, even for those who are not lovers of the ring.

I don’t support bill fights or killing bulls and animals just for fun. It’s sad that they still use this space for the fights , so you can see their blood on the ground sometimes 😞. The inside is cool to look at though, it’s cool to read about the place and the history inside of the venue. It’s cool that Madonna shot her music video here. Nice and central location. Paid €8 to enter.

Without any prior plans to visit, came across with this authentic bullfight arena which is a museum nowadays. You can visit it inside out, not just visiting the arena itself but also exhibitions of old matador clothes, historical information about bullfighting, horsemen riding techniques, Spanish horses and many things more. If you came to visit Puerto Nuevo, don't ever miss to visit RMR. Absolutely worths 👍

Didn’t plan on stopping here on our way to Puente Neuvo, but after walking by it we knew we had to stop. The grounds are meticulously maintained, the structure is beautiful, and the tour was more than worth the €19 entry fee (for two people). There are 39 stopping points but it flows pretty quickly and the handheld guide (that’s provided in English as well) is very entertaining and well done. My favorite part was actually being down inside the ring and seeing the purebred Spanish horses in their stables. Definitely worth a stop if you have 1-1.5 hours to spare.

The amount of artifacts and history was truly enjoyable. The arena was impressive and the building in excellent condition. The musuem aspect was extensive and surprising. I highly recommend while visiting the area. It also has a restaurant/bar inside with a gift shop. This is definitely in the top ten if you only have 2 days here.

A most interesting museum for those interested in the sport. Building is well maintained and picturesque.

Great museum. I believe each ticket was 7 euros and no student discount. I recommend standing in the center of the ring and saying or yelling something to hear how loud you sound (great "sound system"). You can also climb up to part of the upper floors but only through one stairwell (check my photos to see the angle as I don't remember the exact door). We visited in the afternoon in mid-January on a weekday--no wait and very few people! There are indoor exhibits and a gift shop beneath the arena's seats, within the "walls." Missing a star because every "aseos" (toilets) sign led to a dead end and we couldn't find one.

The bullring itself is a stunning work of art, with it's intricate details and impressive design. It's not just a venue for bullfighting , it's a living testament to the cultural heritage of Sevilla. Take the guided tour to have a fascinating glimpse into the world of bullfighting and the significance of this arena in Spanish history. I highly recommend taking time to explore this iconic landmark and learn about it's role in shaping Spanish traditions.An experience you will not forget.

Great Museum. Its crazy to Imagine what people did Back in the day. Does a great Job at delivering information about old Times. You can Go around pretty freely, there arent many restrictions. A Bit pricey imo, 9€ is alright but as the Tour ist pretty short, the price could be adjusted. Would recommend having a Look though. I mean when you're Up Here you're probably Here to See this anyway :)

Fascinating! The bullring is both a great way to learn about its history and see the tradition being continued. You can purchase an audio guide accompaniment which is incredible. I highly recommend it as it greatly enhances the experience.

Reaaly great place to see. Very interesting history of corrida. You can feel the dark and brights side of this tradition. There are still marks on the door made by bulls. Its better to take audioguide. One part of the prohibition partialy closed (probably temporarily)

Visited a couple weeks ago when visiting Spain and Ronda. Was a lovely museum. A lot of interesting information about the history of Bull fighting in Ronda. Value for price perhaps was a bit expensive. I’d pay 5 euro for it to be “perfect” pricing. But yeah if in Ronda 100% worth a visit.

Exploring the bullfight ring in Spain was a fantastic experience for a history enthusiast like myself. The audio guide provided a wealth of details, enhancing the visit as I freely explored. The presence of authentic artifacts added to the richness of the experience.

No longer used as a bullring, it is now a museum, dedicated to this Spanish tradition. Access is almost everywhere, be sure make the most of your visit

Beautiful arena , MUSEUM . Walking audio tour is very convenient, takes about an hour to see everything peacefully.

This Bullring is a historical marvel in a beautiful white town. Please visit the museum to understand the reasons for the bullfight. You don’t have to like Bullfighting! I LOVED IT!

Absolutely fantastic. What an amazing place, this history and feel of the arena is awesome. Loved the historical experience.

Very interesting bull ring in the great city on Ronda. We didn’t see a bull fight but visited the bull ring and has full access all around this very interesting location. Wonderful

One of the oldest buildings in Spain dating from the late 1700’s. The 8.5 euros to enter allows you access to the ring and the small museums located inside the interior of the ring itself. Fascinating to be able to walk throughout the entire arena including the cent of the ring.

Excellent trip. Audio is a must to enjoy the whole experience. Even if you disagree with bull fighting the exhibition and information is very interesting.

I was afraid to visit this place, but I liked it. You should see great posters in the shop.
