The Plaza de Toros de Osuna began to be built at the beginning of the year 1902 with popular participation, product of the plans of Aníbal González.

It was inaugurated on May 13, 1904 to move the bullfighting celebrations that were previously held in the town squares. It was drawn up following the scheme that was being imposed at the time: ring, barrier and alley, and was built supported by two concentric sandstone walls of Las Canteras and was subdivided into eight sectors marked by eight original entrances. In the middle of the ring that faces bulls there is a vaulted and earthy tunnel reminiscent of the oval entrails of the Itálica amphitheater.

The arena, a circle almost forty-eight meters in diameter, is one of the largest on the peninsula. The stands have six thousand five hundred localities.

The Bullring also has the Bullfighting Museum dedicated to the history of the Plaza and its bullfighting history.

It has been the privileged setting for several television commercials, short films, photographic reports and filming, the most important of which is part of the fifth season of the prestigious American series "Game of Thrones" in 2014.

In 2019 this new space was inaugurated, and it is distributed in three parts: the first, dedicated to the History of the Plaza de Toros, the second to the Bullfighting History of the Plaza de Toros, and the last part, dedicated to the Culture of Bullfighting.
