This little gem may be small but gives you an idea of what it was like to live in the city when it was built. Full of history and unique building design you feel like you are visting a friends house rather than a museum. The gardens outside are small but perfectly formed and offer spectacular views of the valley.

If you are in Ronda for the day - I would place this on my top 5 things to see. It very nice but relatively small and non-ostentatious.

The museum is interesting, with a lot of information about the history of Ronda. However, there isn't too much to see. There are some artifacts and a couple nice courtyards. The palace has some nice views, but it's not worth paying the money just for the views that you can see elsewhere for free. If you really have a passion... More

This is a fairly unexciting museum, but the setting is great. There are several lovely gardens at the back and we sat for a long time just admiring the view.

Some of the exhibits are very stange, for instance a neolithic cave reconstruction inside a palace, but the building and gardens are nice, again with stunning views

The displays are laid out chronologically and are educational (signs in Spanish and English -- thank you!), but do not include much authentic craft or art of any of the cultures. The building itself, the courtyards and the gardens and views were the best part of the experience for me.

If you are even vaguely interested in local history/culture - put this on your list (very cheap to get into to from what I remember.) The Spanish are not great at putting on Exhibitions (IMO), but here you have archaeology, history and everything set in a magnificent historical setting. 9/10!

The Mondragon Palace has an old Moorish courtyard, parts of which are original; it's serene. Unusual find in such a small town.

Mondragon Palace is one of the highlights of Ronda. A fine building containing excellent geomorphological displays explaining the local limestone landscape feature. These displays are a prelude to displays and life-size models describing the archaeology of Ronda and its area up to the settlement of the area by the Romans. A disappointment is that the history stops with the Romans.... More
