THE HOUSE'S NOBLE HALL

A new life for The Grand Hall

Located on the first floor of the house, this hall represents the meeting point between past and present. It was once the noble hall, decorated with notable 19th-century paintings from the Mallorcan school. Today, it has been transformed into a new, vibrant space, ideal for hosting modern art, concerts and activities.
