What to see in the Cathedral of Majorca
“From outside you will see its armour, but get in, and you will see its soul!”
The painter Santiago Rusiñol said it once. He said that there was no other temple that with more simplicity of means had reached such beauty.
The Cathedral of Mallorca is one of the most spectacular Gothic cathedrals in the Mediterranean.
Located on the walls of Palma, the Cathedral of Mallorca, also called La Seu de Mallorca rises imposingly above the Mediterranean Sea. It is considered one of the jewels of the Gothic Mallorca.
On this guided tour you will discover its history, evolution, curiosities and secrets. Besides, we will contemplate the three major monumental interventions that have taken place in the cathedral. The reconstruction of the Major Portal of the Cathedral of Mallorca at the end of the 19th century; the great reform of Antoni Gaudí between 1904 and 1914 by order of Bishop Joan Pere Campins and the intervention of contemporary art by Miquel Barceló (2007) in the old Sant Pere chapel.
