Directions
Catedral-Basílica de Santa María de Mallorca, often called La Seu, is Palma de Mallorca’s great Gothic landmark, dramatically set above the sea. Built over centuries after the Christian reconquest of Mallorca, it became the island’s principal religious monument and a symbol of Palma’s historic identity. The cathedral is known for its soaring interior, immense rose window, and its striking position beside the old city walls. Its artistic importance extends beyond the medieval structure: architect Antoni Gaudí contributed a notable wrought-iron canopy and liturgical redesign in the early 20th century. Today, the cathedral remains both an active place of worship and one of Mallorca’s most significant cultural and architectural sites.
