About Posada dels Olors
Posada dels Olors (Olors Inn) dates from the 17th century. This was the family house to one of the most powerful families in Artá; the Font of Olors. This astonishing building was remodelled extensively along the 19th century in order to reflect the wealth and prestige of the lineage. The complex is articulated through two blocks with three different levels. This geometry draws an internal courtyard, currently a beautiful garden. The family shield is carved on the facade and the main door opens to a path leading to the garden. Old cisterns are located in the backyard. Nowadays, the majestic old manor house functions as a retirement home.
