A Journey Through History The construction of the Palma Cathedral started in 1229 during the reign of King James I of Aragon, after the Christian reconquest of Mallorca. The construction took centuries and was finally completed in 1601, hence reflecting several architectural styles. It dominates the skyline of the city with great views of the sea and old town, which makes it very popular among photographers and history enthusiasts. Architectural Highlights 1. The Rose Window It houses one of the largest rose windows in the world, measuring 12 meters in diameter, and is thus also known as the ”Eye of Gothic.” Composed of over 1,200 pieces of stained glass, it bathes the interior with colors when the sun shines through the glass pieces; hence, it is an extremely interesting sight. 2. The Chapel of the Holy Sacrament This chapel was designed in the early 20th century by the famous Catalan architect Antoni Gaudí. The modernist touches are there but blend perfectly with the Gothic aspect of the whole cathedral. The interventions of Gaudí gave it a new and airy feeling, which was very pleasing spiritually. 3. The Bell Tower The Bell tower of the Palma Cathedral stands over 50 meters high. Visitors can go to the top for panoramic views over Palma and its beautiful coastline. Cultural and Religious Significance While La Seu is a sight to behold, it is still a working place of worship and retains the most central role in the religious life of Mallorca. The cathedral particularly enjoys several activities and ceremonies during the whole year, including Easter celebrations and the Feast of the Immaculate Conception.
