Marratxí, located just 10 minutes from Palma de Mallorca, is a destination that stands out for its artisanal and ceramic tradition. The town is home to the Museu del Fang, a museum dedicated to pottery located in an old flour mill in Sa Cabaneta. This cultural space offers a sample of the most emblematic pieces of Mallorcan ceramics, including the famous siurells, small clay figures that function as whistles. Every April, the Fira del Fang celebrates this tradition with a large fair that attracts artisans and visitors interested in clay art.

But Marratxí is not just about ceramics, it is also home to historic factories that produce some of Mallorca's most iconic products, such as Túnel herbs, Amazona rum and Flor d'Ametller almond perfume. In addition, the Bodegas Suau, the only brandy factory on the island, is another attraction that reflects the tradition and artisanal value of the municipality. For history buffs, the Son Caulelles cave is a prehistoric site that offers a fascinating insight into local archaeology, while Marratxinet, the oldest town in Marratxí, allows visitors to explore traditional buildings such as Can Vador and Can Serra.

Marratxí is also ideal for those who enjoy quiet walks in nature. The Healthy Routes offer a relaxed way to get to know the municipality and its surroundings, with paths such as the Cimentera, the Camino del Jardín d’en Ferrer or the Camino de Ca na Maiola, which invite you to explore the natural landscape at a slow and peaceful pace. All in all, Marratxí is a place where artisan tradition, history and nature intertwine to offer an authentic experience of the most genuine Mallorca.
