You’ll make your way to Soller’s heart, where you’ll see the grand modernist Iglesia de Sant Bartomeu de Sóller (Sant Bartomeu Church), Banco Santander (the town’s ornate Art Deco bank), and Ajuntament de Sóller. From there, you’ll stroll along the quaint shopping street.

Along with curious facts and some folklore, you’ll learn about the terrible plague of 1865.
