Description

The Museo Llorenç Villalonga in Binissalem is a house museum and cultural centre dedicated to the Mallorcan writer Llorenç Villalonga.

The House, the Work, the Atmosphere

The museum occupies the former home where Llorenç Villalonga and his wife lived and wrote. The permanent exhibition is laid out across the original rooms of the historic building — including the study where Villalonga wrote parts of his work — and is complemented by a collection of editions of his writings. A newly opened room is dedicated to María Antònia Oliver, where a portion of her personal library is on display and available to browse.

A Living Literary Centre

The museum sees itself not merely as a memorial but as an active cultural space, hosting literary and cultural events throughout the year. Guided tours of the house are a highlight of any visit — giving you a real sense of Villalonga's life, his wife's world, and the atmosphere of the Mallorcan landed gentry that shaped his writing. Exhibition texts and labels are mostly in Spanish, so a guided tour is especially worthwhile if you don't read the language.

In the Heart of Binissalem

The museum is located at Carrer de Bonaire 25 in the village centre of Binissalem, a town in the inland of Mallorca. You can find the museum's website at mallorcaliteraria.cat.
