Porreres

Tradition and community 

Porreres, situated between hills and farmland, is a town that stands out for its traditional architecture, with narrow streets and historic buildings. This charming town is a centre for cultural activities that reflect Mallorca’s rich tradition in both architecture and gastronomy.

A remarkable example of the community spirit of Porreres was the construction of the road to Monti-sion in a single day on 14 January 1954, which demonstrated the entrepreneurial spirit and solidarity of the people. This historic event has left its mark on the character of “porrerencs” and “porrerenques”.

Community involvement

Porreres is an example of active civic participation, with almost 50 associations and entities covering sports, education, culture and more. This community involvement strengthens ties between residents and creates a welcoming environment for visitors.
