Description

Can Sales is a public library in the heart of Palma that also serves as a museum and place of remembrance, carrying a significant historical dimension.

A Historic Site of Remembrance

Can Sales is inextricably linked to the story of Aurora Picornell: it was in this very building that she was held prisoner before being shot at the cemetery of Porreres on the night of 5th to 6th January. This historical connection makes the place far more than a library — it is also a memorial site.

Where to Find It

Can Sales is located in the Centre district of Palma, right on Carrer de la Puresa 2.
