Santuari de Lluc, Pilgrimage monastery in Escorca, Spain

The Santuari de Lluc stands at 525 meters elevation in northwestern Majorca, encircled by mountains including the Puig de Massanella peak.

A Moorish shepherd discovered a statue of the Virgin Mary in the 13th century, leading to the establishment of this religious sanctuary.

The monastery maintains Els Blauets, a boys' choir established in 1491, whose members wear blue cassocks during their regular musical performances.

The monastery provides accommodation in former monk cells and serves as a starting point for walking tours through the Serra de Tramuntana mountains.

A botanical garden trail behind the monastery buildings presents an exhibition about the natural environment of Majorcan mountain regions.
