The Charterhouse of Valldemossa offers guided tours in its monumental complex and the possibility of carrying out didactic and experimental workshops, delving into the different collections that it guards and turning the Royal Charterhouse into a center of entertainment and learning.
We propose a journey through time going through seven hundred years of a history, the beginnings of which are starring a king, monks and a monastery.
The Charterhouse we know is the result of the various transformations carried out by all the people who have lived here throughout its history. It was first a palace, then a monastery, private dwellings were later built and today it is a monument and a museum.
The tour begins at the monastery and continues with a visit to the church, the pharmacy, the priory cell, the collections of Frédéric Chopin and George Sand and the municipal museum, and ends at the primitive Cartuja, located in the palace of King Sancho.
