Majorca - Monasterio de Lluch

From the turn-off for La Calobra C 710 continues northeast. At the hamlet of Escorca a country road goes off on the left to the monastery of Nuestra Señora de Lluch, Majorca's principal pilgrimage center, where, according to legend, a shepherd boy found a black wooden figure of the Virgin in the forest. The present monastic buildings date from the 17th and 18th centuries.

On the first floor of the monastery is a museum. In the aisled Baroque church, on the wall facing the high altar, is the much venerated image of the Virgin known as La Moreneta (the "Dark- Skinned One"). Adjoining the monastery is a Way of the Cross.
