Plaça de la Seu, s/n, Centre, 07001 Palma, Illes Balears, Spain
+34 971 71 31 33
Catedral-Basílica de Santa María de Mallorca (La Seu) is Palma’s dramatic, sea‑facing Gothic cathedral — a towering medieval landmark known for its slender, light-filled nave, ornate stonework and a monumental rose window that dominates the transept.
What Makes It Special
The cathedral’s enormous west rose window — often called the 'Gothic Eye' — is a standout: its vast stained glass floods the interior with colour on sunny days, creating spectacular light effects unique to this space.
Insider Tips
Visit in the late afternoon on a clear day (or around sunset) to see the rose window at its most dramatic; buy a timed-entry ticket or join a guided visit to avoid crowds and get close views of Gaudí’s wrought‑iron canopy over the altar — note the building is not fully wheelchair accessible.
