Cartoixa de Valldemossa

Overview

Historic monastery where Chopin composed among ancient stone and mountain silence

This 14th-century Carthusian monastery in the heart of Valldemossa is one of Mallorca's most storied cultural landmarks. Visitors can wander through the austere yet beautiful monastic cells, pharmacy, and library, including the rooms where Frédéric Chopin and George Sand spent their famous winter of 1838-39. The setting, nestled in the Tramuntana mountains, is as compelling as the history within its walls.
