Mallorca Attractions
Almudaina Palace © Ajuntament de Palma
Palau de l'Almudaina
Opposite the cathedral in Palma stands an austere fortress
palace that was erected by the Moors and later became the residence
of the kings of Mallorca. Inside, most rooms and corridors are
bare, but there are some beautiful Flemish Gobelin tapestries
on display as well as a few antiques, art works and suits of
armour. The palace, on the Plaza Reina, is surrounded by a pleasant
Moorish-style garden sporting fountains, which offers panoramic
views of the harbour.
