Itinerary 2 Moorish rule


Central chamber of the Arab baths in calle Can Serra in Palma

Although the period of Moorish rule over the Balearic Islands lasted a long time, there are not many surviving artistic remains because of the successive invasions bent on the destruction of all signs of "enemy" culture. In Majorca, the Palma of the Romans became Madina Mazurca, the cultural centre of the island. Of this, these Arab Baths are still conserved; one can visit the small, main chamber, square in shape with a domed ceiling.
