Legends, Architecture and Art: Explore Mallorca’s Historic Treasures
ABOUT THE Mallorca Cathedral Tour and Old Town
This tour is operated by our partner Mallorca Free Tour.
Step into the heart of Palma de Mallorca and uncover the fascinating history of its iconic cathedral and medieval old town. Led by an expert local guide, this immersive Walking Tour offers a deep dive into the city’s past, from its Roman foundations to its vibrant present.
Begin your journey at Parc de la Mar, where the majestic Mallorca Cathedral (La Seu) dominates the skyline. As you explore its breathtaking Gothic architecture, you’ll learn about its origins, legends, and artistic transformations, including the stunning interventions of Antoni Gaudí and Miquel Barceló. Have you ever wondered why the cathedral is called La Seu? Or what mysterious light phenomena occur inside twice a year? Your guide will reveal these secrets and many more.
A Walking Tour Through Palma’s Hidden Corners
After experiencing the awe-inspiring interior of the cathedral, the journey continues through the charming streets of Palma’s old town. Discover the elegance of Mallorcan courtyards (patios), visit the historic Santa Eulàlia Parish Church, and admire the beautiful Basilica of Sant Francesc, home to one of the most impressive cloisters in Mallorca.
Strolling through the medieval quarter, you’ll encounter Plaza de Cort, where Palma’s historic Town Hall stands, and marvel at modernist architectural gems like Can Corbella and Can Forteza Rey. You’ll also walk through parts of the Jewish Quarter, uncovering stories of its past residents and their influence on the city.
End Your Tour at Palma’s Lively Market
Your walking tour concludes at Mercado de l’Olivar, the largest and most traditional market in the city. This is the perfect spot to experience the flavors of Mallorca, whether by tasting local specialties or getting recommendations for the best nearby restaurants. Whether you're passionate about history, architecture, or gastronomy, this tour offers a perfect blend of culture and discovery in the heart of Palma de Mallorca.
