the town hall building in palma,majorca

---

located on the Placa de Cort is the "Ajuntament" or "Town Hall" building. I thought this was a beautiful building because of its perfect proportions, graceful balcony and the ornate window and door pediments. The added color of the 3 flags above the main door and the large clock known as "En Figuera" on the facade of the 3rd story just add to its interest. The Ajuntament was built between 1649 - 1680, described in tourist literature as "Baroque with Mannerist" features, was once the seat of the important personages of the Old Kingdom of Mallorca Today it serves as the seat of Palma's Town Council.
