Alcudia

Alcudia is best known within Mallorca for its preserved medieval walls, which encircle one of the island’s historic old towns. Near Mallorca’s north coast and the Bay of Alcúdia, it stands apart from the beaches and resort district of Port d’Alcúdia along the bay’s shore. Beyond the gates, the archaeological site of Pollentia records a Roman settlement founded after Rome conquered Mallorca in 123 BC. Its surviving forum, houses and theatre reveal a much older layer beneath the town’s later fabric. The Church of Sant Jaume beside the walls adds to the compact character of the centre.
