Caves of Artà

Surrounded by mountains and 150 metres high sit the majestic Caves of Artà, formed through seismic movements and the continuous action of subterranean waters. Inside, there are a series of impressive chambers where immense stalactites and stalagmites grow into amazing shapes. One of them, the ‘Queen of the Columns’, is spectacular, at more than twenty metres in height.

Capdepera’s medieval castle

Capdepera Castle is a fortified medieval enclave built in the 14th century so that the population in the zone could find refuge within its walls whenever pirates invaded. It is a Place of Cultural Interest. Inside is the Museu de la Llata (Sheaf Museum) with items and tools that show the process of making baskets by plaiting palm leaves.

Torre de Canyamel
Originally called the Torre d’en Montsó, this tower was built in the 13th century during the conquest of Majorca by James 1 to watch out over the coast for possible invasions and as a refuge and for the defence of the inhabitants of Canyamel Valley. It has a central tower with three floors that reach 23 metres in height. From the top, the entire Canyamel Valley can be seen, along with the coast and most of the municipalities of Capdepera, Artà and Son Servera.
