Presentation of Algatocín

The municipality of Algatocín (834 inhabitants in 2015; 2,000 ha; municipal website) is located 140 km west of Málaga. The municipality is made of the villages of Algatocín and Salitre.
Algatocín was most probably established by the Berber tribe of Al Atusiyin. The oral tradition says that the place was named for Princess Agotisa, who lived here; she was probably the daughter of Abomelia, the second Moorish king of Ronda. There is no historical source backing this legend.
