Discover Es Capdellà
Es Capdellà lies inland in Calvià beneath the outline of Puig de Galatzó. Village houses and the surrounding large estates retain evidence of agricultural life. It is a setting in which to notice the close relationship between the inhabited settlement, the cultivated land and the mountains rising beyond it.
A story to discover
The village began taking shape in the seventeenth century around homes for workers on the large estates known as possessions. Galatzó, Son Vic and neighbouring properties explain this rural origin, separate from the later tourism-driven growth along the municipality’s coast.
