As we all know, Mallorca is a gorgeous Mediterranean island with beautiful weather, stunning scenery and delicious cuisine and the best way to see and understand Mallorca’s rich heritage is by visiting its museums and traditions. The local museums do a great job at blending the present with the past and illustrating the history of this marvelous city. Discover everything from ancient artifacts from the successive cultures of the island tribes to famous works of artists such as Pablo Picasso and Salvador Dali. Take this tour with me to see the best museum and art galleries in Palma. First of all, Museum of Mallorca and Es Baluard (Museum of Modern Art) are a must see because here you’ll find the island overflowing with its rich and interesting history.

Situated in a 17th century palace, this destination is as important as it is grand. Seen as the biggest and most significant museum on the island, Museu de Mallorca has several collections on display and thousands of exhibitions. Experience Mallorca’s history like never before, from ancient artifacts of the successive cultures on the island, to models of life thousands of years ago. The third one is Diocesan Museum that is hidden behind Palma’s Cathedral in the former episcopal palace and is devoted to Byzantine, Baroque, Gothic and Gaudí holy art.

Among the items displayed in the museum you will find paintings, pulpits, prayer books, Arab tapestries, ceramics and much more. Very close to this one is museum of Spanish Contemporary Art, Palma de Mallorca. Therefore, for art lovers this place is a heaven – located at Sant Miquel Street in the historic quarter of Palma, the Museum of Spanish Contemporary Art (Museu Fundación Juan March) is housed in a majestic 17th-century building.

Originally built as a residence and later remodeled several times, the mansion becomes a museum in 1990. Here you’ll find collection features works by Picasso, Dali and Miro, as well as contemporary works by Spanish emerging artists and international ones too. How the jewelry are a girl best friend, in this place you can see the unique and delicate production process of organic pearls which mirrors the tradition of these beautiful cultured pearls.

Here you will discover the creation process while you watch their artisans at work on a free guided visit. You will find a vast array of products and see their latest creations including exclusive models. Their expert sales staff will give you the best advice and you can enjoy special offers and discounts all year round on selected items. The Mallorca pearls are made of an opaline crystal nucleus coated in multiple fine layers with the “pearl essence”, an extract obtained from thir secret processing technique of natural organic elements of the Mediterranean Sea. Its complex formula reproduces the iridescence, beauty, resistance and perfection of the finest natural pearls. Is a must see if you have spent your life admiring the magazine featuring famous women wearing Pearls of Mallorca. As always, this beautiful island offers the perfect combination of seaside, relaxation and culture.
