Can Ripoll - Conselleria de Turisme

Monuments | Palma de Mallorca

In the seventeenth and eighteenth century this house was owned by the Binimelis and Ripoll families. In the late nineteenth century the house was owned by Gabriel Verd i Reure. Catalina Verd i Mayol de Bàlitx married Pere Morell i Verd and their heirs sold the house to the Balearic Government; nowadays it houses the Department of Tourism. Entry to the courtyard is through a large segmental arch, with marble pilasters and Ionic style capitals. To the right is the staircase, with iron railings with flat balusters. On the first floor there is a gallery with an arch and Baroque balusters.
