Two decades ago this beautiful tree was brought to Palma from an estate in Pollença and planted in the central Palma square, Plaza de Cort, as a symbol of peace and our deep-rooted attachment to the earth.

If we look at it carefully, we can see intriguing shapes like the «Ear of Mallorca» or the face of a giant. It is a listed tree, protected under Act 6/1991 which regulates the protection of unique trees.
