I. The windmills of Majorca
A new kind of tourism
The restoration of the windmills not only preserves a cultural legacy, it also recreates a traditional Majorcan
scenery. Only by saving the landscape, the Majorcan government can realise its goal of transforming the mass
tourism at the Majorcan beaches into a cultural tourism. By providing a better range of touristy features,
the visitors shall discover Majorcan history. For this sake, the government created the walking trail "Ruta
de Piedra en Seco" through the mountain range Serra de Tramuntana, which follows the life and works of the archduke
Ludwig Salvator.
