+34 971 61 21 06
The Carthusian Monastery Valldemossa (Real Cartuja de Valldemossa) is a historic former monastery turned museum in the hilltop village of Valldemossa, where visitors can explore cloisters, the church and monastic cells as well as the preserved rooms where composer Frédéric Chopin and writer George Sand stayed—all set against sweeping views of the Serra de Tramuntana.
What Makes It Special
What makes it special is the intimate combination of musical and monastic history: the tiny rooms and dedicated exhibition about Chopin and George Sand are displayed within the original Carthusian cloister, alongside the atmospheric Royal Pharmacy with its glazed ceramic jars.
Insider Tips
Buy tickets in advance and arrive early to avoid the busiest periods; bring a light layer as interior rooms can be cool, and note there are many steps and narrow passages—the site has limited accessibility for visitors with mobility issues.
