The modernist movement, with its innovative forms and vibrant colors, broke away from the dominant classicism of the early 20th century. In Palma, we find stunning examples of this revolutionary style, prominently featuring the influence of the great Antoni Gaudí. His legacy in the Cathedral of Mallorca paved the way for other local architects, such as Lluís Domènech i Montaner, who designed the iconic Gran Hotel.
Join us on this exciting tour to explore the architectural gems of Palma's modernist heritage.
