Church of Saint Francis

Church of Saint Francis : The Michelin guide review

The Sant Francesc Church, built in the 13C and 14C, was decorated at the end of the 17C with a plateresque rose window and a baroque doorway, the tympanum of which is the work of Francisco Herrera. The interior, made up of a huge nave, houses in one of its apses the tomb of the scholar Ramon Llull under a magnificent recumbent figure. The cloister, begun in 1286, is of a rare elegance: the arcades, meticulously carved into several foils, rest on clusters of small fragile columns.
