Palma de Mallorca

Learn about the island’s Jewish heritage and the community that lives in Mallorca today as you explore the old 16th-century Jewish quarter, and then finally discover the Art Nouveau side of the city by taking a look at Palma de Mallorca’s intriguing Modernist architecture and developments.

Duration 180 minutes

Catedral de Mallorca

Stop for photos outside Palma Cathedral (La Seu), and hear how the Roman Catholic place of worship was built on the spot where an Arabian mosque one stood. If the site is of particular interest to you, upgrade to include admission and head inside to admire the circular, stained-glass windows and Gaudi-designed features. The colorful, and often controversial, Modernist artist left his mark on the site, and his attention-grabbing altarpiece is considered the cathedral’s highlight.
