Description

The Museum of Mallorca is an art museum in the heart of Palma's old town, showcasing Mallorcan art and cultural history within a magnificent 17th-century city palace.

The Collection: Art and Archaeology of the Island

The permanent exhibition spans Mallorcan art from the Middle Ages through to the 20th century, with highlights including religious art, altarpieces and sacred paintings, sculpture and stonework, as well as ceramics, porcelain and tableware. Roman mosaics rank among the most striking pieces in the archaeological holdings. The permanent collection is complemented by a rotating programme of temporary exhibitions.

The Building: City Palace Can Aimans

The museum is housed in the Palau Can Aimans, a 17th-century city palace that incorporates elements of two earlier Gothic structures. The building itself — its grand halls, restored rooms and sweeping views over Palma's rooftops and the Cathedral from the upper floors — is widely regarded as a sight worth visiting in its own right. The museum was founded in 1961 through the merger of the Marroig Collection, the former Museo Provincial de Bellas Artes and several archaeological collections.

Location

The museum is situated at Carrer de la Portella 5 in the Centre quarter of Palma's old town, a short walk from the Cathedral.

Access & Practicalities

The museum features a step-free entrance, accessible toilets and a lift, making it well suited to visitors of all abilities. It is also a great choice for families with children.
