A royal palace from the medieval Mediterranean...
Located in the heart of the citadel it is the most important monument in Perpignan and one of the most remarkable testimonies of Medieval military and civil architecture of the South of France.
It was built in 1276 to acommodate the Court of Jack the First of Majorca. The most important works were carried out by his successors - the Kings of Aragon. It is now being restaured, but you can visit the main courtyard - a beautiful set of Gothic buildings with elegant ogival arcardes on its front. There are also two superposed chapels in the donjon - a huge masonery body
