New year

This year, the arrival of the new year was a little special. As soon the bell arrived to twelve o´clock, there was one second that nobody said anything. Then of course people shouted and celebrated the new year, but for one second, people doubted if the arrival of the new year was good or bad news.




The coming of the new year, is celebrated always in Plaza de Cort

Festa del Estandart




One King (James I)



His idea (To conquer Catalonia Valencia and Balears)






During the conquest, the port of Palma was invaded, the king James The Conqueror came to invade Mallorca with 155 boats, and he was only twenty one years old. A good way to see how it all happened is to watch the movie Troy. In this movie is very easy to see how a walled city was invaded, and to realize that to pass the wall was very hard. In Palma, like in Troy, the wall was not destroyed, but opened to the enemy as a signal of rendition. After the conquest of Mallorca, in the year 1231 he conquered Menorca, Ibiza in the year 1235 and in Valencia in 1238. He tried also two crusades, but they did not go too well.






City wall of Palma




The Invasion of the city




The Headquarters of the Arabs





This celebration, remembers the conquest of the island in 1229










Finally, the pole with the flag of Mallorca is in the center of the city. Victory!
