Cabra Bullring

Cabra Bullring

Antigua plaza de toros con forma poligonal de 16 lados, ruedo de 43 m y capacidad para 6167 personas, ideal para los amantes de la historia taurina.

This is the oldest bullring in the province of Córdoba. It was inaugurated on 24 June 1857 by Francisco Arjona Guillén ‘Cuchares’ and Antonio Sánchez ‘Tato’. It underwent refurbishments in 1888 and 1904, when the wooden barriers were removed and a 2-metre-wide passageway was built. This bullring is characterised by its 16-sided polygonal shape; the arena measures 43 metres and has a capacity of 6,167 spectators, classifying it as a third-category venue. It is worth noting, as a curious fact, that the master Manolet made his public debut here on Easter Sunday in 1931.
