English writer and poet Robert Graves lived in Deià, Mallorca for long periods in his life. The foundation that bears his name has acquired and refurbished the house he built to disseminate his work. The famous author of I,Claudius, among other works, came to Mallorca in 1929 and lived in Deià until his death in 1985, except for the period during the Spanish Civil War and World War II. 'Majorca is paradise - if you can stand it', Gertrude Stein told a young Robert Graves during an interview, a paradise that would enthral the writer. A simple gravestone in the peace and quiet of the parish church cemetery marks the poet's final resting place. Tuesday to Saturday 10.00 - 17.00 Sunday 10.00-15.00
