Estellencs, Mountain village in Serra de Tramuntana, Mallorca, Spain.
Stone houses with terracotta roofs line the narrow streets of Estellencs, positioned between the Mediterranean Sea and towering mountain peaks at 154 meters elevation.
The defensive tower Tem Alemany was constructed in the 16th century to protect Estellencs and its 13 square kilometers of territory from frequent pirate attacks.
The Church of San Joan Baptista stands as the central religious structure in Estellencs, representing traditional Mallorcan architectural elements and spiritual practices.
The village contains one small general store, several restaurants serving local cuisine, and maintains direct road connections to neighboring Andratx and Banyalbufar.
With only 318 residents, Estellencs holds the distinction of being the least populated municipality in Mallorca, preserving its agricultural traditions and mountain lifestyle.

Mallorca offers diverse landscapes where fine sandy beaches and wild coves surrounded by limestone cliffs succeed one another. On the northwest coast, Sa Calobra marks the spectacular mouth of the Torrent de Pareis, while Cala Figuera nestles between the rocky walls of Cape Formentor. To the southeast, near Santanyí, Caló del Moro and the Mondragó natural park reveal other facets of the Mediterranean coast. The island's architectural heritage reflects centuries of history. In Palma, the Gothic cathedral from the 14th century dominates the port with its nave standing 144 feet (44 meters) high and 61 stained glass windows. The round Bellver Castle, built in 1311, is perched on the heights of the city. The Drach Caves in Porto Cristo reveal an underground world spanning approximately 0.75 miles (1.2 km), including Lake Martel, one of Europe’s largest underground lakes. The Alfàbia Gardens in Sóller preserve Moorish hydraulic art from the 13th century, while the Roman site of Pol·lèntia in Alcúdia dates back to the 1st century BC. To the north, the s'Albufera natural park conserves 4,200 acres (1,700 hectares) of wetlands hosting over 250 species of migratory birds.
