Palma's Architectural Gems

Palma’s cityscape is a living museum of Mediterranean history, showcasing a blend of Gothic, Baroque, and Islamic influences. The skyline is dominated by the massive La Seu Cathedral, featuring Gaudí’s modern interventions, and the unique circular Bellver Castle. Within the narrow streets of the Old Town, you’ll find the 10th-century Arab Baths, the ornate 17th-century City Hall, and the Llotja’s elegant civil Gothic rib vaulting. These sites represent centuries of transformation, from Moorish strongholds and royal residences to grand religious monuments.
