Palma Cathedral Entrance Ticket

Built on the clifftop where the Roman city was founded, the outline of the Cathedral stands out above the city walls, making it one of the distinguishing features of Palma’s seafront.

The Cathedral was built on a cliff rising out of the sea, making Majorca Cathedral the only Gothic cathedral to be reflected in the water. With the construction of the Parque del Mar this effect has been restored and so the outline of the Cathedral is again reflected in an artificial salt-water lake that echoes the sea that used to come up to the city walls. This exceptional location is one of the Cathedral’s most distinctive features.

The Cathedral’s artificial lighting also deserves special mention. It is lit by five candelabras – one in the nave and four in the aisles – as well as the lighting that Gaudí designed at the start of the 20th century that comprises fourteen candelabras on the columns and the candelabras and lamps in the Royal Chapel.
