MALLORCA - MAJORCA

Sineu, Mallorca


View Larger Map

Welcome to Sineu – one of the most beautiful medieval towns in Mallorca, delightfully located on a small hill in the centre of Mallorca. This ancient agricultural centre serves a large rural area in the heart of Mallorca - with excellent access to the rest of the island from the beaches to the mountains.  A visit to the local market every Wednesday will offer a flavour of the fruits of the land.

Many of the historic buildings in the town still show traces of the ancient times – the town hall (worth a visit itself to see the ancient cloisters, the ‘Gigantes’ – giant models representative of local trades; and an exhibition of photographs depicting late 19th century Sineu).  The parish church is the largest on the island and dates back to the 13th century as does the palace built by King Jaume II in 1309 for his residence when for a period Sineu was the capital of Mallorca.

Sineu offers a multitude of eating places including cellar restaurants serving dishes such as lechona (traditional roast suckling pig).  Amidst other restaurants within the old town you will find a creative Tapas Restaurant which serves great cocktails as well!  In the main marketplace there are a myriad of café bars plus a great Bistro.  The three hotels in town offer more international fare: The Hotel Leon has a delightful garden in summertime, as does the Restaurant Moli d'en Pau.  Close to the rail station is a Grill Restaurant and a superb Pizzeria, whilst at the International Sports Centre you will find various activities available - as used by young Rafael Nadal.

Many fiestas and fairs are held throughout the year upholding the traditions of the Mallorquians.  Although many of these do not finish until the early hours of the morning, it is a real pleasure to be just 3km away!
