Pl. de la Conquesta, Maó, Balearic Islands, 07701, Spain

Plaça Major

Centro

A crafts market fills this elegant neoclassical space from 10–2 on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday mornings during most of the year (usually April-Dec). Until 1838, this was the local headquarters of the Inquisition. A flight of steps on the east side of the Plaça Major leads down to La Rambla, a pleasant promenade lined with flower stalls.
