Convent de Sant Francesc, 13th-century Gothic monastery in Palma, Spain
The convent complex encompasses a basilica with a central nave reaching 25 meters in height and eight lateral chapels along its sides.
King Jaume II of Majorca established the Franciscan monastery in 1278, with construction beginning in 1281 and extending through multiple phases until 1670.
The medieval cloister displays Gothic architecture with four galleries arranged around a central courtyard, featuring slender columns and decorative arches.
The convent opens Monday through Saturday from 9:30 to 12:30 and 15:30 to 18:00, with modified hours on Sundays, offering entry for 1.50 euros.
The tomb of philosopher Ramon Llull rests within the church, marked by a recumbent statue commemorating this significant medieval thinker.
