Cathedral of Mallorca
Known as La Seu or the Cathedral of the Sea, Palma de Mallorca Cathedral is one of the island’s Gothic jewels.
Its construction began in the 13th century and was completed in the mid-17th century.
It is considered the emblem of the city of Palma and, thanks to its location, a jewel of the Mediterranean.
Discover the most surprising transformations of this building on our walking tour of the Cathedral of Mallorca: from the reform of the main façade in the 19th century, through the liturgical reform by Antoni Gaudí at the beginning of the 20th century and ending with the contemporary artwork by Miquel Barceló.
This new architectural style arose in Europe at the end of the 19th century and is characterised by its bold and vibrant style.
It is a type of urban architecture and its model is the apartment buildings commissioned by the new bourgeoisie, enriched by commerce and industry.

Call jueu: The Jewish Quarter
The Jewish quarter or Call jueu was the area of the city where the Jewish community lived.
During the Middle Ages and part of the Modern Age, there were two very important Jewish calls in the city of Palma. Call is the name used to refer to the Jewish quarters or aljamas of the territories of the Crown of Aragon.

All this and much more about the Jews in Mallorca on our guided tour through the old town of Palma.
The manor houses of Palma, popularly known as “patios mallorquines“, are magnificent examples of the civil architecture of the city of Palma de Mallorca.
They are symbols of power and prestige, residences of the Mallorcan aristocracy. Their style varies according to the artistic movement that gave birth to them, from Gothic in the 13th century to neo-baroque in the 20th century.
Today we can find around 100 patios or manor houses scattered around the old quarter of Palma, some of which are now public buildings (museums and/or the headquarters of the Balearic Government and Palma City Council) and others are still private residences.
Find out more about these jewels of the city’s architecture on our walking tour of Palma’s patios.

Palma's Maritime Quarter
Since ancient times, the island of Mallorca and the city of Palma de Mallorca have been one of the most important commercial centres and ports in Europe and the Mediterranean during the Middle Ages and the Modern Age thanks to its perfect location in the Western Mediterranean.

It is a unique medieval castle in Spain: Gothic style and circular floor plan. It was built between 1300 and 1311 by direct order of King James II of Mallorca. This palace fortress is located in a privileged and strategic area, perfect for surveillance activities, controlling the bay of Palma and the interior of the island.
On the outside, you can see the different parts of a medieval castle; and inside, an elegant parade ground and the exhibitions of Greco-Roman sculpture, the Ramon Llull room and the Gaspar Melchor de Jovellanos room.
