\"\"<\/p>\n

Can Balaguer is without doubt one of the most emblematic buildings in Palma. Thanks to the donation of Josep Balaguer, an outstanding figure in Mallorcan culture at the beginning of the 20th century for his musical contributions and patronage, the city now has a building that explains the development of Palma’s stately homes.<\/p>\n

In the permanent exhibition ‘La casa posible’, located on the first floor of the building, you can see several collections from Balaguer, Can Morell and the old Town Hall building, as well as pieces from the Dom\u00e8nech-V\u00e1zquez collection, the Alomar family and the Consell de Mallorca.<\/p>\n

The different rooms of Can Balaguer recreate rooms that show the wealth and power of the noble families of the time. After the entrance room you can enter the bright room with the fireplace, which is connected to a 19th century dining room. Immediately afterwards you enter a large room with a clear French influence, which makes way for a large music room and a baroque room with its own bedroom, where all the details are kept.<\/p>\n

During the tour of the main floor of Can Balaguer, you can see exquisite furniture and a huge collection of decorative and pictorial pieces that tell the story of the development of painting and the splendour of Mallorca.<\/p>\n
