Description

The Ajuntament de Palma is the historic town hall of Palma, Mallorca, situated on the Plaça de Cort in the heart of the old town.

Architecture & Facade

The building dates largely from the 17th century and is a striking example of baroque Mallorcan architecture. Its most distinctive feature is the characteristic wooden roof overhang, supported by carved figures — a detail that gives the building its unmistakable character. The elaborately decorated facade sits in perfect harmony with the Plaça de Cort, commanding attention without overwhelming the square.

Interior & Highlights

Inside the town hall you'll find a library as well as historic ceremonial rooms, a grand staircase and an entrance hall well worth a look. The entrance hall is home to oversized figurines — known as giants, kings and other characters — which are among the building's most remarkable exhibits. During the festive season, the illuminated building and square draw particular admiration.

Location & Getting There

The town hall stands at Plaça de Cort 1 in Palma's old town district of Centre. The square is framed by narrow lanes and is easy to reach on foot. Right in front of the building stands an ancient olive tree, considered a landmark of the square in its own right. Step-free access and accessible parking are both available.

Local Authority & Services

As Palma's municipal authority, the Ajuntament de Palma is the first port of call for official city matters. Many administrative processes can also be handled online via the e-government portal at seuelectronica.palma.cat and the main website at palma.cat.
