La Puresa (Can Desclapers)

Monuments | Palma de Mallorca

The house became the property of the Desclapers family in the 15th century. It was inherited by Francesc Rossinyol de Sagranada i Desclapers, who sold it to Bishop Bernat Nadal, who in turn made it the site of the Pureza de María Santísima girl’s school (founded in 1809 in calle de la Pau), and which was reorganised in 1870 by Gaietana Alberta Giménez, Mother Alberta.
