This is the website of ARCA, the association which safeguards Mallorca’s cultural heritage. Our name stands for Association for the Revitalization of the Old Town Centre (Associació per a la Revitalització dels Centres Antics) because when the association was founded in 1987 the priority was to revive the old part of Palma, which was almost abandoned. Since then we have gradually become active across the whole island, and established contact with the other Balearic Islands, elsewhere in Spain, and other countries.
