Description
The Cova de Lourdes is a devotional and pilgrimage site set within a natural cave near Santa Eugènia, dedicated to Our Lady of Lourdes.
A Cave as a Sanctuary
Tucked into the rock face above Santa Eugènia, the Cova de Lourdes houses a chapel carved directly into the stone. At its heart stands a wooden sculpture of Our Lady of Lourdes. Towards the back of the cave, visitors can tuck small notes bearing wishes or prayers into the cracks in the rock — a tradition that gives the site its living, pilgrim character. It is a quiet, well-kept place of prayer with a deeply peaceful atmosphere.
The Path Up
A pleasant, tree-lined trail leads from Santa Eugènia up to the cave. A steep staircase of around a hundred steps brings you to the entrance. Once at the top, you're rewarded with sweeping views across the Pla de Mallorca. Benches and a small clearing make it a lovely spot to sit and linger.

The Cova de Lourdes sits just a short distance from the centre of Santa Eugènia (address: Diseminado Diseminados Var, 337, 07142 Santa Eugènia). It also forms part of the walking routes around the Puig de Santa Eugènia.
