Palma Cathedral

The Cathedral of Santa Maria of Palma (La Seu) is a Gothic Roman Catholic cathedral in Palma, Mallorca, built on the seafront between the Royal Palace of La Almudaina and the Episcopal Palace. It has three parallel naves, a very tall central nave, extensive flying buttresses and pinnacles, and a large east rose window nearly the full width of the central nave. Construction began after 1229 and continued into the 17th century.

As it stood in 1600

What Palma Cathedral looked like in its prime.

A massive, vertical Gothic mass of warm golden-brown sandstone rising directly from a low stone city wall on the seafront; three stacked ranks of chapels, side naves and the towering central nave are articulated by broad flying buttresses and repeated pinnacles. A vast circular rose window punctuates the upper east wall, the west façade presents a neo‑Gothic gable and pointed main portal, and a tall bell tower anchors one end — overall an austere, highly vertical silhouette.
