Let’s start our new week with another cultural trip on Majorcan territories. We all know how important it is, from a cultural perspective, this part of Spain’s history: the Arab culture.

A bit of history – at a single glance

 Undoubtedly, this culture and civilization left an impressive footprint over Spain, which has been so stalwart that has lived on to our days, changing itself into a formidable cultural heritage. One of the most relevant traces in terms of national identity, the Arab Baths of Palma are one of a reduced number of archeological remains from the age of Muslim domination of the Balearic Islands.

Hotel Palladium

Situated on Calle Can Serra, number 7, you can find this lordly and impressive-looking vestige opened for all visitors. It is assembled of a central hall, surrounded by columns. Altogether, this formation hosted the steam baths and belonged to a private residence.

Impressively, both an authentic “caldarium” and a “tepidarium” have survived the flow of time! If think about visiting Palma, or you already are in Palma, we totally advise you to take a few moments in order to visit this remarkable piece of history!

It is only a 20-minute walk from our hotel, so, you can’t miss it!
