Puerto Pollenca is one of the localities in the Balearic Islands, Spain that has the oldest history in the Mediterrenean. In the time of the Phoenicians the city became an important Mediterrenean port, which went on through the centuries with the egyptians, carthagineans, romans and the arabs. No obstante, la ciudad en si no fue fundada hasta el siglo XIII, concretamente el año 1229, por orden del Rey Jaime I. Entre sus monumentos no podemos dejar pasar la el Roser Vell, un santuario del Siglo XIV; Iglesia Parroquial del Siglo XVIII, el casco histórico de la ciudad; la Fuente del Gallo, del Siglo XIX; el Oratorio de San jordi, del Siglo XVI; la capilla del Calvario, del Siglo XVIII, así como una serie de monumentos que, tanto por su belleza como por su historia merece la pena visitar.
Su máximo esplendor lo vivió en la época Romana, cuando bajo el nombre de Pollentia, Pollenca era la capital de las Baleares.
En el Siglo XX, Pollença al igual que el resto de la isla tuvo una metamorfosis que la llevó a subsistir de los frutos de la tierra y el mar a formar parte de las ciudades cuyos ingresos principales vienen dados por el turismo. Pollensa es el lugar elegido por miles de personas para disfrutar de sus vacaciones, y de famosos como Wiston Churchill o Agatha Christie que han venido hasta aquí para descansar y buscar inspiración. |
