1. Palma Arab Baths, also known as Banys Àrabs or Baños Árabes, is a historic site located in Palma, the capital city of Mallorca. The baths date back to the 10th century when the Moors ruled the island, and are believed to have been part of a wealthy Muslim noble’s residence. The baths were used for both ritual purification and relaxation, with separate hot and cold rooms, and a central pool. The intricate arches and columns, as well as the decorative stonework, reflect the Islamic architectural style of the time. The site was later used as a Franciscan convent in the Middle Ages, and the current structure is a combination of both Islamic and Christian influences.
