[2025 Alcudia Attraction] Travel Guide for Alcudia Old Town (Updated Aug)

Alcúdia, located in the northern part of Mallorca, Spain, is a British tourist destination just like Faro, Portugal. Because there are stretches of fine sandy beaches and desolate and towering cliffs that can be admired from the sea. The rich history itself gives the city a majestic medieval center and many traditions that you absolutely must witness with your own eyes. There are mountains, seas, ancient cities, and a super famous market, so there are rich travel programs. Alcúdia was officially founded in 1325 by King James II, after whom the church of St. James is named. From that time you can still admire one of Alcudia's two city walls. Another is from the Renaissance. If you have time, walk the narrow, winding streets, get lost and look at all the architecture. Some of them once belonged to nobles, which is really amazing! But remember, Alcudia is a very popular destination, so be sure to book in advance. # Sign up for hotel trial sleeper in July

Old town alacudia

It’s now time to discover the historic and charming second town of Mallorca - Alcudia. Alcudia has a beautiful old town that dates back to the Middle Ages. I explored the cute and quaint little alleys that are dotted all around the old town. Look out for the historic Old Town walls and gates that fortify this beautiful place. The Roman city of Pollentia is located just outside the walls of Alcudia Old Town. There are three main archaeological sites within this excavation -making this the most important Roman archaeological site on the island of Mallorca. Pollentia was, by Roman standards, a very modern city with its own drinking water reserves and sewerage system. This area shows the ruins of the homes that housed the wealthy. The forum would have been the beating heart of Pollentia, the town centre where the townsfolk will have congregated. It’s here that you can still see the remains of the Capitolino Temple, a temple dedicated to Jupiter, Juno and Minerva. It was incredible to walk the same steps and imagine what life would have been like in this bustling area more than two millennia ago. I have to admit, I wasn’t expecting much but Pollentia was a pleasant surprise and offered so much in the way of history and culture. #mallorca #spain #alcudia #europe #travel #holiday #vacation
