1. Church of Fornalutx (XIII century)

Originally from the 13th century, this temple combines Gothic features with a later Baroque reform. Its simple façade and its unique sundial stand out. Inside, the single nave houses altarpieces of great value and a historic organ. It is the spiritual heart of the village and its tower stands out among the red tile roofs, marking the most iconic silhouette of this Mallorcan valley.

2. Urban area

Declared a Historic-Artistic Site, it is one of the best preserved villages in Spain. Its narrow cobbled streets are full of staircases, flowers and stone houses with the famous "painted tiles", a unique tradition of the sixteenth century. To walk through here is to immerse oneself in a medieval atmosphere where every corner offers a spectacular view of the terraced orange and olive groves.

3. City Hall and defensive tower (17th century)

The Town Hall of Fornalutx stands out for integrating an old defense tower of the seventeenth century. This structure protected the population from pirate raids that ravaged the Mallorcan coast. Today, the complex is a symbol of the civil and military history of the municipality, maintaining its solid and austere character, perfectly blended with the traditional architecture of the mountains.

This former manor house was acquired by the municipality to preserve the local heritage. It is a magnificent example of rural aristocratic life and now functions as a cultural center and museum. It houses a valuable collection of painted tiles, fundamental pieces of Fornalutx's popular culture, and offers a fascinating glimpse into the roots and traditions of the Tramuntana.
