Son Gual

This 'Possessio' or estate dates from the Moorish occupation and was known as ulaxamen. It was registered in 1538 and covers land in the Palma and Esporles municipalities; at this time its owner was Juan Miguel Gual, Canon of the cathedral of Palma.

Originally, vines, olive trees, carob beans and cereal were grown on the farm and from the 16th to the 18th Century the 'Possessio' was known as 'Son Gual de Pocafarina' (Little flour), although not because it produced so little flour but, rather, because it was one of the most productive farms in the area. There are even those who still call it by this name today. According to the Gran Enciclopedia de Mallorca (Great Majorcan Encyclopaedia) the family of Juan Roten Sureda, Marquis of Campofranco, bought the estate in 1891.
