Located on the north of Mallorca, the quiet village of Pollensa celebrates every year one of the most famous and traditional feast in the Mediterranean: the "Moros y Christianos".
This particular day, Pollensa becomes the theater of all this tributing battle that occured in 1550 when the pirats leaded by Dragut attempted to attack this christian village.
This highly emotional event offers to the islanders the opportunity to present their culture.
