The Plaça de Carles V is a square in the heart of Alcúdia's old town, best known as the setting for a lively market held twice a week.

Market & What's on Offer

Twice a week the Plaça de Carles V transforms into a bustling market with a wide range of goods: fruit, vegetables, cheese, cured meats, baked goods, clothing, shoes, leather goods and jewellery all vie for your attention across the stalls. If you're looking to compare markets in the area — including those in Pollença and Port de Pollença — this one is widely regarded as the most varied of the three.

The Square Itself

On non-market days, the Plaça de Carles V is a lovely spot to sit and unwind. There are plenty of seats around the central war memorial, making it an ideal place to take a breather. The well-preserved town walls of Alcúdia's old town are also within easy walking distance.

Getting There

The square is located at Plaça de Carles V in 07400 Alcúdia, nestled within the historic old town.

Safety Note

Pickpocketing and distraction theft have been reported in and around the square, particularly on market days. It's worth keeping your wits about you — especially in the side streets nearby.
