Description

The Porta del Moll is a medieval town gate in Alcúdia, framed by two crenellated towers and set within the 14th-century city walls.

The Gate and Its Setting

This well-preserved stone gate, flanked by two towers, marks the entrance to Alcúdia's old town. The archway and adjoining walls are in excellent condition, making the medieval fortifications easy to read and appreciate. Once you step onto the ramparts, you can walk along the battlements and take in sweeping views over the bay and the surrounding landscape — a highlight that consistently stands out as one of the most rewarding parts of a visit.

Old Town and Atmosphere

Beyond the gate, narrow lanes open up between restored historic townhouses, independent shops, cafés, and restaurants. The atmosphere throughout is effortlessly picturesque and relaxed. The Porta del Moll itself makes for a striking photograph and serves as a natural starting point for exploring the old town on foot.

Market

On market days, the area around the gate comes alive with stalls selling fashion, jewellery, leather goods, fresh fruit and vegetables, and kitchenware. If you're planning a visit on a market day, do expect a livelier, busier scene around the gate.
