Valldemossa is a beautiful town located west of Mallorca on the Sierra de Tramontana. Holds a former Carthusian monastery founded by monks in 1399.

The monastery hosted the pianist Frederic Chopin and writer George Sand in the winter of 1838-1839, after which came the writer’s novel “A Winter in Majorque”, where this reflected their uneasiness with the Islanders.
