The guided tour of the Cathedral of Palma de Mallorca starts at the Parc de la mar (opposite the tourist office).
During this visit we will learn about the origins of the city of Palma from the arrival of the Romans to the present day. We will delve into the evolution of the cathedral, its names, its history, architecture, art and some of the most surprising curiosities of one of the most spectacular Gothic cathedrals in the Mediterranean. When was the Cathedral of Mallorca built? Who is buried there? Who is the bishop of Mallorca? Why is it called La Seu? All this and much more on our guided tour of Mallorca Cathedral.
In addition, we will continue our route through the streets of the medieval city, we will see some Mallorcan patios, the parish church of Santa Eulàlia, the royal convent of Sant Francesc, the Plaza de Cort, part of the Jewish quarter and we will finish at the municipal olivar market, the largest in the city, and the perfect place to taste the typical Mallorcan gastronomy or go to eat in a nearby restaurant.
What to see during the Cathedral tour?
First, we will explain the exterior architecture and then we will get into the temple through the Portal de l’Almoina, the northern side, and we will visit first the museum of the cathedral and the two chapterhouses where we will find some relics, tombs and a collection of Gothic paintings.
Once, visited the museum, then we will get into the temple.
Already there, we will have the opportunity to enjoy and contemplate the structure, light and space of the Cathedral and we will show you some of the most important interventions such as Antoni Gaudi’s work (1904-1914) and the contemporary art of Miquel Barceló (2007)
All of it combined with curiosities about its construction, history, graves and magical light phenomenons that only happen twice a year…
