There are <strong>three public car parks<\/strong> in Valldemossa, all of which are blue zone car parks, this means you need to buy a ticket from the automatic machines in each car park to pay  and register for your stay. <strong>It costs approximately \u20ac1 per hour, and they operate every day from 10:00 to 20:00 hours<\/strong>. From any of the car parks, you&#8217;ll be in the old town in just 5 minutes by foot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can also park in one of the streets around the parking lots, but remember that they are also blue zone, and you must buy a ticket too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"by-public-transport\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"by-public-transport\"><\/span>By Public Transport<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>If you want to go to Valldemossa from Palma, you can take line 210 from the intermodal station in Palma City, and in just 45 minutes you will be in Valldemossa.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>From the tourist areas in the east of Mallorca, there are bus lines that take you directly to Valldemossa, without passing through Palma: the 451 from Cala Millor, the 452 from Cala Ratjada and the 453 from Cala Dor.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>From other tourist areas, we must go to Palma first, and from there take line 210 to reach Valldemossa.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>To check timetables and fares, we recommend you to visit the Mallorca&#8217;s public transport page (TIB), where you will be able to plan the best timetables to get to Valldemossa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/d\/u\/0\/embed?mid=1Y_C3r6rw9vk2-jsEDbdjt24b4lqYa2XD\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\"><\/iframe>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"by-an-organised-excursion\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"by-an-organised-excursion\"><\/span>By an organised Excursion<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>For those who do not have a car and have come on holiday to Mallorca, a good option to visit and get to Valldemossa is with an organised excursion directly from a nearby location to your hotel or accommodation.

Here are some suggestions for a to visit Valldemossa, of course depending on how much time you are going to dedicate to the visit:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Half day: <\/strong>Visit the Valldemossa Charterhouse and stroll around the village.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>One day:<\/strong> To the previous itinerary we can add a visit to the port of Valldemossa.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Two days: <\/strong>We can do the above, stay in one of the hotels in Valldemossa, and the next day have a good coffee for breakfast with the typical <strong>coca de patata<\/strong>, and then go on a hiking route.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"old-town-hall-of-valldemossa-and-jardines-del-rey-juan-carlos-gardens-of-king-juan-carlos\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"old-town-hall-of-valldemossa-and-jardines-del-rey-juan-carlos-gardens-of-king-juan-carlos\"><\/span>Old Town Hall of Valldemossa and Jardines del Rey Juan Carlos (Gardens of King Juan Carlos)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We begin our<strong> list of places to see in Valldemossa <\/strong>with this beautiful and charming little corner, with well-tended gardens next to the Valldemossa Charterhouse. The large cloister of the monastery of the Carthusian monastery had been located here, and had been used as the monks&#8217; cemetery!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We can see the building where the Town Hall of Valldemossa used to be, with the coat of arms of the town, the Estret and the four stripes of the Kingdom of Catalonia. The Estret de Valldemossa has always been very important part of the town, since the residents had to cross it to get to Palma. The Catalan stripes are on the coat of arms because the King of Catalonia and Aragon gave the palace of King Sancho to the Carthusian monks to found their monastery. The monastery and the estret are two important references for Valldemossa, and that is why we find them on the coat of arms of the town!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These gardens were inaugurated in 1960. Here you\u00b4ll see sculptures dedicated to Santiago Rusi\u00f1ol, Archduke and Rub\u00e9n Dar\u00edo.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"528\" src=\"https:\/\/www.click-mallorca.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/chopin-y-valldemossa-1024x528.jpg\" alt=\"Statue of Chopin in the Ruben Dario square\" class=\"wp-image-4061\" style=\"width:700px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.click-mallorca.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/chopin-y-valldemossa-1024x528.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.click-mallorca.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/chopin-y-valldemossa-300x155.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.click-mallorca.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/chopin-y-valldemossa-768x396.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.click-mallorca.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/chopin-y-valldemossa.jpg 1128w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"ruben-dario-chopin-and-valldemossa-square\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"ruben-dario-chopin-and-valldemossa-square\"><\/span>Rub\u00e9n Dar\u00edo, Chopin and Valldemossa Square<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This square is dedicated to the famous Uruguayan poet Rub\u00e9n Dar\u00edo, who stayed at the Sancho Palace. Previously, this square was located inside the monastery. It was the entrance courtyard, immediately after the entrance area. We must not forget that the monastery was previously walled!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before reaching this square, we will find a statue of the famous pianist Chopin, who has an important relationship with Valldemossa. You may have also heard of George Sand (nickname of Amandine Lucie Aurire Dupen), a very advanced woman for the time she lived in: she smoked; she wore men&#8217;s clothes \u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They started their relationship when she was still married, so she decided to leave her husband. When he realised that she was leaving him for another man, he became very angry and even threatened her with a gun! Fortunately, nothing happened, but the whole of Paris knew about it. To calm the situation, George Sand and Chopin decided to leave the city for a while, and the chosen destination was Mallorca. This is the theory as to why Chopin came here in the first place. However, there is also another theory: they came here on holiday as a &#8220;honeymoon&#8221; to help Chopin overcome his tuberculosis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They arrived in Mallorca on 8 November. They first lived in the French embassy, and then on the outskirts of Palma, in Son Vent. In November, Chopin was very ill and had a major tuberculosis crisis. Everyone found out that he had tuberculosis and the owner forced them to leave the house because he was afraid of contracting tuberculosis. As they didn\u00b4t want to leave Mallorca, they found a new place to live: a cell in the monastery of Valldemossa. The change was not good for Chopin, who got worse. Finally, they had to leave in February due to Chopin&#8217;s illness. Ten years later he died.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"484\" src=\"https:\/\/www.click-mallorca.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/cartuja-de-valldemossa-1024x484.jpg\" alt=\"Carthusian monastery of Valldemossa\" class=\"wp-image-4062\" style=\"width:700px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.click-mallorca.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/cartuja-de-valldemossa-1024x484.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.click-mallorca.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/cartuja-de-valldemossa-300x142.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.click-mallorca.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/cartuja-de-valldemossa-768x363.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.click-mallorca.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/cartuja-de-valldemossa-520x245.jpg 520w, https:\/\/www.click-mallorca.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/cartuja-de-valldemossa-720x340.jpg 720w, https:\/\/www.click-mallorca.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/cartuja-de-valldemossa.jpg 1273w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"valldemossa-monastery\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"valldemossa-monastery\"><\/span>Valldemossa Monastery<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Valldemossa Charterhouse is the most important monument in Valldemossa. The origin of the monastery is the palace of King Sancho, whose construction was ordered by King James II at the beginning of the 14th century. There were two reasons for building the palace:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><strong>A hobby<\/strong>: <\/strong>Chasing. The kings loved to chase.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><strong>Illness<\/strong>: <\/strong>asthma. Sancho had it and his doctors recommended him to live in a high place.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Valldemossa had a high altitude and extensive forests. The kingdom of Mallorca disappeared in 1349, and then the palace was not used as much as before. However, it was still preserved, mainly as a falconry centre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 1399 (June), King Martin gave the palace to the Carthusian monastery of San Bruno so that they could build their monastery there (the Carthusian monastery of Valldemossa). They immediately came here and began to transform the palace into a monastery. In the 18th century, they had plans to enlarge the monastery. Work began, but was abruptly terminated in 1835 when the Spanish government confiscated all the properties of the religious orders (including the Valldemossa Charterhouse) and then sold them to the people of the village. From 1835 to 1842 the Spanish government owned the monastery and, through one of its institutions, rented the cells to interested parties. In 1842 the monastery was sold at auction to the bankers Antonio Canut and Nicolas Ripoll. In 1845, the monastery was divided into different parts that went to Mr. Canut and 8 other people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was in 1929 that the Ferra family opened their cell to the public, with things related to the stay of Chopin and George Sand. Later, many other cells were opened.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"611\" src=\"https:\/\/www.click-mallorca.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/interior-cartuja-valldemossa-1024x611.jpg\" alt=\"Cell inside the Valldemossa Carthusian monastery\" class=\"wp-image-4078\" style=\"width:700px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.click-mallorca.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/interior-cartuja-valldemossa-1024x611.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.click-mallorca.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/interior-cartuja-valldemossa-300x179.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.click-mallorca.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/interior-cartuja-valldemossa-768x458.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.click-mallorca.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/interior-cartuja-valldemossa.jpg 1169w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p><strong>The visit to the Valldemossa Monastery includes:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The church, which contains some beautiful paintings by Bayeau, Goya&#8217;s brother-in-law.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The sacristy, with real artistic treasures.

One of the most outstanding elements is the Pleyel piano, on which Chopin composed some of his most famous preludes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the cell there are 3 rooms with more memories and documents related to their stay in Valldemossa. Whilst we are on the subject of Valldemossa, Chopin and George Sand &#8211; we recommend the book &#8220;A Winter in Mallorca&#8221;. In the book, George Sand recounts her experience of her journey and stay here in Mallorca. It is a portrait of the Mallorcan customs around those times that are still celebrated now, and the cultural clash between one and the other.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"603\" src=\"https:\/\/www.click-mallorca.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/palacio-rey-sancho-1024x603.jpg\" alt=\"Palace of King Sancho\" class=\"wp-image-4071\" style=\"width:700px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.click-mallorca.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/palacio-rey-sancho-1024x603.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.click-mallorca.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/palacio-rey-sancho-300x177.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.click-mallorca.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/palacio-rey-sancho-768x452.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.click-mallorca.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/palacio-rey-sancho.jpg 1113w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"the-palace-of-king-sancho\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"the-palace-of-king-sancho\"><\/span>The Palace of King Sancho<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We have already mentioned this palace as the origin of the Valldemossa Monestary, and the entrance to the site also includes a free visit to this palace.

The concert lasts approximately 15 minutes, and various pieces by <strong>Fr\u00e9d\u00e9ric Chopin are performed<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"877\" height=\"493\" src=\"https:\/\/www.click-mallorca.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/valldemossa-mirador.jpg\" alt=\"Valldemossa Viewpoint\" class=\"wp-image-4064\" style=\"width:700px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.click-mallorca.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/valldemossa-mirador.jpg 877w, https:\/\/www.click-mallorca.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/valldemossa-mirador-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.click-mallorca.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/valldemossa-mirador-768x432.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 877px) 100vw, 877px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"miranda-viewpoint\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"miranda-viewpoint\"><\/span>Miranda Viewpoint<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Bordering the old palace of King Sancho, through a small alley, we reach a small square (Plaza del Brollador) where the <em>old entrance<\/em> to the palace of King Sancho is located.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Valldemossa there are many hidden corners with lots of charm, and this is one of them. From here there is a beautiful view of the valley with the access road to the village, the Estret and the oldest part of Valldemossa. Also, years ago, the old pharmacy was located in this square.

We begin in the Santa Catalina Tom\u00e1s square where the parish church of San Bartolom\u00e9 is located, first documented in 1236. Over the centuries, the church of Valldemossa has undergone different modifications, to the point that it was not until 1925 that the current bell tower was inaugurated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To the left is <em>Rectoria street<\/em>, one of the most beautiful streets in Valldemossa.

In 1972 the house was converted into a public chapel on the occasion of the commemoration of her beatification. Saint Catalina Thom\u00e1s was born in Valldemossa in 1533. As a child she experienced miracles and strange prodigies. Her parents died when she was a child and she was adopted by her uncle and aunt, and she was working in Son Gallard, a farm. It was Father Casta\u00f1eda who helped her enter a convent. At first, she was not accepted in any of them because she was poor, but then a miracle happened when all the convents in Palma decided to accept her at the same time. She was highly venerated by the population and very famous.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She died in 1574 and popular fervour has grown ever since. For example, although she died in 1574, she was blessed in 1972. As you walk through the streets of Valldemossa, you will see small tiles on the fa\u00e7ades of many houses dedicated to different episodes in her life. The tiles aren\u00b4t very old, as they already show Catalina as a saint, which she has been since 1931. They were laid as a result of the saint&#8217;s sanctification.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Valldemossa there is a lot of village consciousness, of keeping the streets clean. Years ago the town council suggested to the citizens that they should put a flowerpot in the street to make it more beautiful, and they all did it, which is why we find so many flowerpots.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"668\" src=\"https:\/\/www.click-mallorca.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/ruta-valldemossa-1024x668.jpg\" alt=\"Valldemossa\" class=\"wp-image-4073\" style=\"width:700px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.click-mallorca.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/ruta-valldemossa-1024x668.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.click-mallorca.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/ruta-valldemossa-300x196.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.click-mallorca.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/ruta-valldemossa-768x501.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.click-mallorca.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/ruta-valldemossa.jpg 1120w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"valldemossa-public-square\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"valldemossa-public-square\"><\/span>Valldemossa Public Square<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This is a very historic square where many of the town&#8217;s public events were held, such as the weekly market, the Three Kings&#8217; performance or even the hanging of prisoners in medieval times. The square retains all its old character, and the arcaded building is known as the hospeder\u00eda ermita\u00f1os (hermits&#8217; hospice). This is very common, because in Spain before arriving at a hermitage (in this case the Ermita de la Sant\u00edsima Trinidad) there was a hospice where pilgrims could wash their hands and feet, change their clothes\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can see a fa\u00e7ade with the typical decoration of stones on the wall, and painting on the wall. And if we take the alleyway of the Plaza, we can see some houses with painted tiles with drawings and inscriptions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"the-old-washing-places-of-valldemossa\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"the-old-washing-places-of-valldemossa\"><\/span>The old washing places of Valldemossa<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>They are no longer used now, but in the past, all the women of the village used to come here to wash their clothes! Well, not only to wash, but also to chat, to discuss the latest gossip\u2026 especially on a Monday. On the upper part, in 1888, a house was built to house the civil guard. This building was used until a few years ago actually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is also a boundary cross dating from 1704.
