Set on a wooded hill above Palma, Bellver Castle is known for its rare circular design and sweeping views of the bay. It rewards lovers of architecture and viewpoints alike.
An unusual circular fortress
The circular courtyard and stone galleries form one of Mallorca’s most unusual Gothic buildings. Walk the corridors and take in its striking geometry.
Museum and city history
The city history museum adds context to the castle’s past. The visit combines medieval architecture with Palma’s wider story.
Views across Palma
From the hill you can see the harbour, the city and distant mountains on clear days. The surrounding woodland is pleasant for a walk.
