Placa a Ernest Hemingway y La Cónsula
Placa a Ernest Hemingway y La Cónsula stands in Málaga, commemorating Ernest Hemingway’s visit to the city in 1959. The marker belongs to La Cónsula in Churriana. Behind it rises a nineteenth-century mansion, once owned by Californian hosts Bill and Annie Davis. Their friendship with Hemingway began in Mexico.
During his stay, Hemingway followed the bullfighting rivalry between Luis Miguel Dominguín and Antonio Ordóñez. He later documented that contest in articles for Life magazine. The series became The Dangerous Summer, linking this Málaga stop with his writing about Spain. La Cónsula also hosted his sixtieth birthday celebration and now houses a hospitality school.
