The hermitage was erected in the 17th century in honor of a statuette of the Mother of God found in the same place. The present building dates from the decade of the 20's of the 20th century, when it was rebuilt after being destroyed by lightning.

awful!, no beach just piles of rocks and rubble!

The project was drafted by Emili Pou. It was inaugurated on August 31, 1863 with a fixed catadioptric optic for a 6th order lighthouse and an olive oil moderator lamp with a wick. In 1883, olive oil was no longer used as fuel, and kerosene from Scotland was used instead. Then, in 1917, rotating screens with clockwork system and mercury float were added to produce a luminous appearance of 3+2 occultations. That same year a gas generator had been installed to produce the acetylene gas with which to illuminate the lighthouse, a system that was removed in 1964 with the installation of the then modern Dalen mixers, also powered by acetylene, but now producing a new appearance of isolated occultations every 5sg. In 1962 the lantern was replaced by another from Racional SA. In 1970 the lighthouse was electrified and a 4th order catadioptric optic was mounted, which is still active today, being the oldest optic placed in a lighthouse in the Balearic Islands, built by Henry Lepaute and installed for the first time in the lighthouse of Artrutx in 1859. The lighthouses of Cap Blanc and Cala Figuera are in charge of beaconing the ends of the Bay of Palma. At the beginning it had, like many other lighthouses, a boat service for the supply, and a road that ran along the cliff was used to carry the fuel up to the lighthouse.

These are two buildings that were designed simultaneously, with an identical composition. They are known as the Casasayas house and the Pensión Menorquina and are separated by a narrow street (C/ Santacília). An overhead adjoining passageway had been designed for this street, but was never built upon the decision of the city council. The two buildings were completed a year apart, their construction taking place between 1908-1910 and 1909-1911. Can Casasayas was designed as an apartment building with commercial premises on the ground floor. The two buildings present similar resolutions, both in terms of their interior layout and in their façades. Both buildings have a ground floor and four upper floors, in which all the bedrooms are located on the façade side, providing perfect lighting for the interior. The treatment of the façades is identical in both cases and is determined by the modernist style, drawing from the Art Nouveau trend. The Gaudí influence, particularly his Casa Batlló, can be seen in the parabolic arches of windows and doorways and in the undulating treatment of the building. The materials used include wrought iron in the balconies, wood in the blinds - these are adapted to the undulating form of the façade, and local sandstone. The decoration may be scarce but it is nevertheless highly original, based on the stylised details of flowers in columns and butterflies (etc.). The initials JCC (Josep Casasayas Casajuana) can be made out in the façade of the building to the right, in reference to the owner and developer. Guillem Reynés oversaw the end of the management of works on the Pensión, after Francesc Roca i Simó moved to Argentina in 1909, where he would design a great number of works influenced by Catalan modernism.

Las Salinas de Sa Vall or Colonia de Sant Jordi is the second oldest in the world (fourth century BC.) Since its establishment has been initiated by the Punic merchants.

The old slaughterhouse in Palma de Mallorca, has become a cultural and entertainment area where you can enjoy a cinema from the original version to a wide range of bars and cafes.

The neighborhood of Santa Catalina, historic in the city of Palma de Mallorca due to its location near the sea was a fishermen's neighborhood. In the neighborhood we see how the houses do not exceed three floors and have characteristic terraces and facades with Majorcan shutters. The neighborhood has undergone several transformations throughout the year since the eleventh century, with modernist buildings where the theater of the Sea and Land and the Hostal Cuba are preserved. At present the Santa Catalina neighborhood has several pedestrian streets where different restaurants and pubs have been located, which have become a great nightlife area within the city.

Gothic building built as an exchange for merchants in the XV century by Guillem Sagrera, architect and sculptor, it is a symbol of the days when Mallorca was the centre of a flourishing maritime trade. Today this space is dedicated as a centre for art exh Facing the sea and fronted by the palm trees on Paseo Sagrera stands the silhouette of La Lonja in Palma, the former site of the Merchants Association, which was this trade's guild in Mallorca. Work on the building began in 1421 under the direction of architect and sculptor Guillem Sagrera (1370' -1456), who was born in Felanitx and abandoned the nearly finished project in 1446 because of differences with the developers. The last details on La Lonja would be terminated in 1488. Sagrera was an influential figure who participated in major works (some even simultaneously) in the lands of the Crown of Aragon, including the cathedrals of Mallorca, Perpignan and Castelnuovo in Naples, among others. Architecturally, La Lonja is a large rectangular space articulated in three naves supported by six slender helicoidal columns with a ribbed vaulted roof. The ribs of the arches of the vaults merge with the spiral of the columns and are embedded in the walls on the sides. Four octagonal towers at each end, ten smaller towers that act as buttresses, eight large windows and decorative gargoyles and statues characterise its façade. Today, this masterpiece of civil Gothic architecture and Maestro Sagrera's most important work is used for cultural events and official functions.
