Santa Maria la Major d'Inca

Built more than 400 years ago, this cathedral in Inca, Majorca, remains a wonder to this day, with its historically significant organ over the right door.

Santa Maria la Major d'Inca is a cathedral that has a rich history. The current church, in Baroque style, was the third built between 1706-1893, with the façade made of marl, a material commonly used in Baroque churches in Majorca. Inside the church, there is a single nave with seven lateral chapels. The organ, built by Perot Comes in 1419, is in good condition and is situated above the right door of the church, giving the named Plaça de l'orgue.

Although the current church was built in the 18th century, the site has a long history dating back much further. The organ, which is historically significant, continues to impress.
