The Arab Baths of Ronda, located in the San Miguel quarter near the old Arab Bridge, are one of the best-preserved examples of Moorish thermal architecture in Spain. Dating back to the 13th and 14th centuries, these baths were built during the Nasrid dynasty. The complex features typical elements of Islamic bathhouses, including cold, warm, and hot rooms designed for a sequential bathing process. The baths are renowned for their star-shaped skylights in the vaulted ceilings, which allow natural light to filter through, creating a serene atmosphere.
