Your perfect Easter plan: Palma, processions, and living history

written by Es Princep / April 10, 2025

Start your day with breakfast and relax on the Rooftop of Es Princep with views of the sea and Palma's Cathedral

Begin your day with an unforgettable breakfast at the Rooftop of Es Princep. With privileged views of Palma Bay and the impressive Cathedral, each morning becomes a sensory experience. The sea breeze accompanies a gastronomic proposal based on local products, such as Mallorcan bread with oil and tomato, artisanal cold cuts, and seasonal fruits. The relaxed atmosphere, bathed in Mediterranean light, is the perfect starting point to immerse yourself in the special atmosphere that fills the city during Holy Week.

Experience the Easter processions from the heart of the city, with processions just steps away from the hotel

Palma lives Holy Week with a unique intensity. From Es Princep, located in the historic center, you can easily walk to some of the city's most important processions. Every year, the streets fill with reverence, tradition, and spirituality. The processions traverse the main arteries of the historic center, with imposing floats carried by brotherhood members dressed in traditional habits, sacred music, and the silent accompaniment of hundreds of people.

The hotel's proximity to places like Plaza de Cort, the Cathedral, or the Church of Sant Nicolau allows you to experience this cultural and religious event without needing transportation. The sound of drums and cornets mixes with the scent of incense, creating an emotional atmosphere that leaves no one indifferent.

Feel the devotion firsthand with the most traditional brotherhoods of Palma's old town

Holy Week in Palma wouldn't be the same without its brotherhoods, many of which have centuries of history. From Es Princep, you can get to know some of the most representative ones up close:

  • Confraria Joventut Seràfica: Founded in 1930, it stands out for its commitment to Franciscan values. Its float, representing the Holy Burial, parades in complete silence, creating an atmosphere of deep respect and reverence.
  • Confraria Ntra. Sra. de l'Esperança i de la Pau: This brotherhood blends youth and tradition, and is known for its solemn float of the Virgin, carried with reverence amid soft lights and chants.
  • Antiquíssima Confraria Creu de Calatrava: One of the oldest on the island, founded in the 17th century, with its headquarters at the Sant Agustí convent. Its procession is one of the most awaited for its historical and aesthetic rigor.
  • Cofradía Santo Cristo de la Agonía: Known for the drama of its float and the emotion it generates among spectators. Its presence in the processions is synonymous with deep devotion.
  • Cofradía El Silencio de Montesión: As its name indicates, its procession is held in complete silence, a collective meditation act that moves everyone present. Its black attire and austere float make its route one of the most impactful.
  • From Es Princep, we invite you to experience Holy Week in Palma as a journey to the soul of the city. A perfect blend of relaxation, tradition, living history, and spirituality, all from a privileged location by the sea.
