Restaurants, bars, cafes, markets and local culture are all on your doorstep, whilst the coast and its beautiful beaches are just a short drive away.
Leon Pollensa is in the outstanding region of Pollensa, a location that is well recognised for its welcoming atmosphere and unique selection of tourist attractions. If you are looking to fully immerse yourself in the vibrant customs of this culture, the Pollensa Market is a must-see landmark. This market boasts over 300 stalls, compiling an assortment of handmade clothes, bags, and craft items all in one space. There is also a section dedicated to fresh produce, allowing tourists to truly explore Pollensa’s food scene at its original source. The Pollensa Market can be found in the main square of the town centre and occurs every Sunday from 8 am till 1:30 pm.
Placa de l’Almonia is also just a stone’s throw away from the town centre and is considered to be a hidden gem for any European history fanatic. This nuanced square contains a house that was used to care for Pollensa’s poorest citizens during the 14th century. This home was run by wealthy university students who provided essential funds and wheat to the struggling community. Placa de l’Almonia was also used as a battleground on the 30th of May 1550 because violent ambushers attempted to conquer the town. As such, every August, the people of Pollensa hold a beautiful ceremony to honour those who lost their lives defending this idyllic town.
Located just over 5-minutes away from the town centre is Puig de Maria, a phenomenal shrine that sits 330 metres above sea level. At the very top of this hill is an archaic monastery that was built in 1348 to commend and worship the Virgin Mary. In the 18th century, the monastery was completely transformed in order to conform to the Gothic and Baroque styles that were popular at the time. Inside, this significant building is teeming with religious fixtures and artefacts, all of which have been expertly preserved throughout the many centuries. This is an ideal attraction for any tourist who is looking to delve deeper into Pollensa’s far-reaching and alluring history. Locals suggest that it takes around 45-minutes to climb to the peak, making it an enjoyable hike for a majority of guests.
