About Artá
The traditional town of Artá is located in the middle of a large valley at the foot of a small mountain in the northeast of Mallorca. This town clings rigorously to its origins, so it has not undergone many changes in favor of tourism. The parish church, Transfiguracio del Senyor, is the main attraction of the town center.
Below we offer all the information you need to get the most out of your visit to Artá.
History & Culture
From the Santuari fortress of Sant Salvador you can see the town of Artá, this fortress being an important attraction for those who visit the island. To get to the Sanctuary you have to take a walk in the shade of the trees, climbing 180 steps to reach the entrance of the sanctuary. This fortress was built in the fourteenth century, but has been renovated in the nineteenth century. Inside the church you will find some fabulous works of art and the sanctuary garden is an ideal place to enjoy the views.
One of the least known facts about Artá is that it was one of the last villages in Europe to suffer an outbreak of bubonic plague. Moreover, the nearby fishing village Colonia de Sant Pere, was founded by plague survivors who left Artá to avoid contagion.
Historically the surroundings of Artá are known for the production of pottery and basketry. In the archaeological excavations we have discovered tissue fibers that suggest that the basketry would be among the oldest trades of the island.
