A magnificent view from the terraces, the price must discourage a lot of people, which makes the place a little crowded, but it's really beautiful. Arrived 15 minutes early and they let us on before time.

The two artists who gave the cathedral its impressive design. The new chapel by the Mallorcan artist is a real stunner.

The walking trails are easy and I spotted a lot of the wetland native animals.Con: While the Moonlit Sanctuary was a decent experience and I spotted all the animals I had in mind, I much rather prefer a more hands on farm experience– but that’s just me. In spite of my personal doubts, I would say that the pros trumped the cons. It was a day well spent!

The Cathedral skip-the-line tickets were just as advertised! We just walked right up to the door and attendant and he waved us in with our emailed voucher. And, this church is a must visit while in Palma. Such an incrdible plave to see. The hop on hop off bus was fine. The narration was good but, there are many long stretches of the ride through residential streets with little to see. That isn't the fault of City Sightseeing but rather, the layout of Palma.

The Cathedral was absolutely stunning. The height is amazing and the light coming through the stained glass is beautiful. There is a lot to see so give yourself plenty of time. Using the online ticket purchase saved a lot of time, although I don't know how effective that would be in peak season. I was there in May which was relatively quiet.

The purchase was easy and smooth. The travel experience was very good, especially the return to the ship in the late afternoon. The driver understood the tight schedule and, without harming the other passengers, dropped us off on time.

A lot of people buy a wire cutter, we didn't wait because we were present at the opening but a lot of people with the same kind of ticket as us. What would it be like in summer? I don't know.

Hello. Me and my wife where on honeymoon. I ended up having a very bad episode of atrial fibrillation and couldn't make it to the cathedral. We tried to contact to see could we get any support but no one was available to take our message or answer our calls. I was very ill .

The cathedral is a must-see, with its rich cultural heritage. The access to the terrace is a must, a superb view and an original experience to be there! However, the cost of this kind of visit is high!

Palma Cathedral Terrace

The Palma Cathedral is an iconic Gothic masterpiece, and in 2022, the cathedral opened up its rooftop terraces to the public. As a result, visitors can now climb up the narrow stairs past centuries-old graffiti to step out onto these terraces for a birds-eye view of the city. The terraces also offer a closer look at several elements that you’d otherwise only have been able to see from below.

The significance here is that most cathedrals don’t allow visitors onto their rooftops, and the Palma Cathedral is one of the few that leverages this as a key selling point, offering a truly unique experience.

About Palma Cathedral

What are the Palma Cathedral terraces?

Terrace of the Cathedral of Santa Maria of Palma, or La Seu, a Gothic Roman Catholic cathedral located in Palma, Mallorca, Spain

The cathedral’s terraces, accessible from the top of its bell tower, offer fascinating views of the Mediterranean Sea and Palma’s harbor, along with a birds-eye view of the Old Town’s labyrinthine streets. Once you reach the terraces, you walk out onto the flying buttresses and roof ledges and come face-to-face with the Gothic pinnacles that you’d earlier only be able to admire from below.

The path up the bell tower, which consists of about 200 steps, features fascinating graffiti and markings on the wall made by the watchmen and refugees hiding behind the cathedral’s walls a long time ago.

Highlights of the Palma Cathedral terraces

1/3

The Great Rose Window

Climbing up to the terraces gets you a view of the Great Rose Window or the Eye of the Gothic from behind and right up close, offering a unique perspective to one of the largest rose windows in the world.

Frequently asked questions about Palma Cathedral terrace tickets

Are the terraces wheelchair accessible?

Unfortunately, the Palma Cathedral’s terraces are not wheelchair accessible as reaching them involves climbing 200 narrow stairs. As a result, they’re out of bounds for those with limited mobility or anyone suffering from cardiorespiratory illnesses.

Is there a dress code for visiting the cathedral’s terraces?

You must dress modestly when visiting the Palma Cathedral, including the terraces. Your clothes must cover your knees and shoulders, not be see-through, and not contain any offensive text or graphics.

What are the Palma Cathedral’s opening hours?

The Palma Cathedral is open from Monday to Saturday between 10am and 5:15pm, and the last entry is at 5pm. The cathedral remains closed for worship and Mass on Sundays.

Which is the best time to visit the Palma Cathedral’s terraces?

The best time to visit the cathedral and the terraces is during the low season from January to March and November. This is when you’ll find fewer crowds and better photo-ops. You should also ideally visit early on a weekday for the best balance between the weather and crowds.

Guida simpatica e gentile. L'abbiamo trovata facilmente. Dal sito non avevo compreso che la guida fosse solo in inglese. Una cosa che si potrebbe migliorare è il non avere due lingue in contemporanea.

We had booked the terraces of La Seu Cathedral in Palma. Everything went really well. We were told in the app where we should enter, enough time to look at everything. The terraces were absolutely magnificent. Wonderful views over Palma and interesting to delve into the secrets of architecture... we can recommend this activity to every visitor to Mallorca.
