Cort
Cort, Centre, Palma, Illes Balears, Spain
Cort is the historic administrative quarter in the heart of Palma’s old town, centred on Plaça Cort and the Town Hall; it features a compact maze of medieval streets, Gothic and traditional Mallorcan façades, cafés, artisan shops and easy walking access to the cathedral, Passeig del Born and other central sights.
What Makes It Special
Plaça Cort’s centuries‑old fig tree and the striking Ajuntament (Town Hall) façade make the square a distinctive civic and social hub, frequently used for local events, open‑air concerts and a pleasant place to sit and watch daily life.
Insider Tips
Explore Cort early morning or in the cooler evening hours to enjoy quiet cafés and the square’s atmosphere, follow the narrow side streets for family‑run tapas bars and craft shops, and be prepared for cobbled surfaces and limited wheelchair accessibility in parts of the neighbourhood.
