Catedral-Basílica de Santa María de Mallorca
Palma de Mallorca, Balearic Islands, Spain
Catedral-Basílica de Santa María de Mallorca, known as La Seu, is a striking Gothic cathedral overlooking the sea in Palma de Mallorca. Built between the 13th and 17th centuries on the site of a former mosque, its construction was initiated after the Christian conquest of the island in 1229.
The cathedral is renowned for its soaring golden sandstone nave, which is among the tallest in the world, its 61 vibrant stained-glass windows including a massive rose window, and its blend of styles from Gothic to Baroque and modern. The interior features impressive pillars, chapels in multiple styles, and significant artistic contributions, including work by Antoni Gaudí and other renowned artists.
With a capacity for thousands, a dramatic seafront location, and a fascinating history linked to Mallorca's monarchy and legends, La Seu is both an architectural marvel and a centerpiece of Palma’s cultural life.
