The small rural town of Petra lies in the middle of Mallorca, surrounded by agricultural land.
Petra is best known as being the birthplace of Fray Junipero Serra, a missionary who some claim founded California. Petra is also known for its sandstone, which has created many of the villages of Mallorca. Celebrated for its traditional charm and tranquil atmosphere, Petra retains a strong sense of history with its stone houses, cobbled streets, and quiet squares.
Visitors can explore local churches, artisan shops, and wineries producing authentic Mallorcan wines. The village hosts seasonal markets and festivals that highlight rural traditions. Petra offers a peaceful retreat from the island’s bustling coastal resorts, making it ideal for those seeking culture, history, and an authentic glimpse of Mallorcan life.
