Alcudia, Majorca

A historic town with plenty of activities to keep you busy.

The history of this town date backs as far as 2000 BC and it was inhabited by the Pretalayotic settlers and the burial sites can still be seen today. The town was eventually conquered by the Romans and they brought some order to the town and stopped the piracy that was prevalent at the time. They built a well-organised town with well-maintained roads, sewers and fresh drinking water. After the Romans left the town was vandalised and the Moors eventually rebuilt the town and called it Al Qudya (the town on the hill).

The town has been developed for tourism since the early 20th century and they started building hotels in the 30’s. The new development has been taking place since the 70’s but making sure the authentic buildings of the old town are still in place.
