History of Benahavis

Where the name Benahavis comes from

First of all, let’s see where the name of this town comes from. There are two main theories, the first one says that the name derives from the Arabian voice Ben, which means: son; plus the ending and Avis or Havis, which was the name of an important Muslim who lived in the castle of Montemayor. And the son of this famous Havis or Avis, had the idea of building a series of constructions to defend the Guadalmina River and at the same time to defend the left side of the castle. The other hypothesis establishes that Benahavis derives from “Ben Habix”, the sons of the Abyssinian, because a cadí lived here.

A little history of the town

Benahavis was founded during the Arab domination. The great castle of Montemayor was already built in the 10th century. When the Caliphate of Cordoba fell in the 11th century, the castle was a strategic point between Malaga and Algeciras. And in 1273 Mohammed, king of Granada, saw his throne in danger, he asked for help to the Benimerines, who under the command of Abu Yusuf Yaacub, occupied in 1274 Marbella, the castle of Montemayor and Malaga. Because from this castle you can see as far as Africa and more than 100 kilometers of the coast of Spain.

In 1.485 it was reconquered by Ferdinand the Catholic. Later the king entrusted the custody of all this area to Pedro de Villandrando, Count of Ribadeo.
