Royal Palace of La Almudaina

The impressive Royal Palace of La Almudaina, which stands next to the cathedral, was the seat of the kings of Mallorca after the Christian conquest in the 13th century. Today it is the summer residence of the Spanish royal family.

 

La Almudaina is the Royal Palace (also known as the Royal Alcázar) of Palma de Mallorca. It has been declared a Site of Cultural Interest since 3 June 1931. It was built on settlements dating back to Roman times and possibly corresponded to the seat of power. 

 

During the Muslim era, it became an alcázar. With the Christian conquest in the 13th century, it became the seat of the kings of Mallorca. Its walls preserve the historical footprint of the islands since their megalithic origins.

 

Currently, it is one of the residences of the Spanish royal family, specifically during the summer months. It is managed by National Heritage and can be visited just like all the buildings of the Crown of Spain.

Built: 1309.

Style: Gothic

Category: Civil

Type: Palace - City Fortress
