Built in gothic style in the XIV century it is one of the most emblematic buildings in the Mediterranean and one of the tallest cathedrals in Europe. Nearby is the Palacio de la Almundaina, built during the Arab domination of Majorca as a fortress. It was later used by Jaume II, Sancho I and James III. Nowadays, it is used by the Spanish Royal Family as the official residence, when visiting the island today. (Outside visit only).
