About the area around Pollensa

The town of Pollensa was founded in 1229 with the Catalan conquest of Majorca, although the name goes back many years before this. Under Moorish rule the town was known as Al-Bulansa and by the Romans as Pollentia, although the Roman city of Pollentia currently lies in the municipality of Alcúdia. Located in the valley enclosed by the Puig de Maria and the Calvari, Pollensa is the main municipal centre, with over 8,000 inhabitants. =Its old town, dating back to the 18 th century, is made up of a series of narrow streets and emblematic buildings such as the Calvari, the Parish Church, the Cloister of Sant Domingo and the Jesuit School, among others. Pollensa plays a leading role in the islands cultural life. From the earliest years of the 20 th century Pollensa became a favourite place for painters visiting the island; names like Miquel Costa i Llobera, Ramon Picó i Campamar, Santiago Russinyol, Joaquim Mir, Anglada Camarasa, and many others, have contributed with their works (literature and painting) to making Pollensa well-known both in and outside Majorca. Pollensa Museum is housed in what was the old Dominican convent, constructed between 1588 and 1616; the Dominican friars occupied it until 1836. The Pollensa Museum was officially founded in 1975. Over time its collection of paintings has grown, and this collection has been enriched with pieces of an archaeological nature, a Buddhist mandala and the Atilio Boveri collection. An outstanding feature of Pollensas cultural image is the Festival of Classical Music which has been held annually in the cloister of Sant Domingo over the months of July and August since 1961. During its 40 years of uninterrupted existence and constant evolution, festival goers have been able to listen to Mstislav Rostropovich, Jessye Norman, Alban Berg Quartett, Montserrat Caballé and the National Orchestra of France with Lorin Maazel. Pollensa Festival – presided by Her Majesty Queen Sofia - has been a member of the European Association of Festivals for many years.
