The parish church of Nuestra Señora de la Consolación is the second largest church on the island after the cathedral in the capital Palma de Mallorca. The Roman Catholic church dates back to the 17th and 18th centuries and was built in the Gothic style.
Wine-growing areas such as Son Macià or Randa in the neighbourhood and Llucmajor offer wonderful wine routes.
For those interested in architecture, there are several old settlements dating back to the Bronze Age, and the agricultural roots of Porreres can be seen in the 36 windmills.
The uniqueness of this region also lies in the fact that culture and culinary delights go hand in hand here thanks to the fertile soil and diverse agriculture.
