About
The Corpus Christi procession of Palma is one of the most visually spectacular civic-religious pageants in the Balearic Islands, with a history dating back to 1370. The star of the event is L'Àguila, a monumental golden eagle figure dated to 1411 and one of only three surviving medieval ceremonial eagles in Europe. The procession departs from the Cathedral of Santa María (La Seu) and winds through Palma's historic center, featuring Gegants, Cavallets, municipal and ecclesiastical dignitaries in full regalia, and a solemn monstrance beneath a golden canopy. For tourists, it offers an exceptional window into Mallorcan civic identity: completely free, highly photogenic, and rarely overcrowded.
