Self-Guided Podcast Tour Palma de Mallorca: The 17th German State

Beyond the buckets of sangria and the pounding beats of Schlager music lies one of the most fascinating sociological experiments of the 20th century. This is not a pub crawl; it is a deep dive into the '17th State'—the nickname given to Mallorca by Germans who have transformed this coast into a home away from home. Join Sara and local expert Mario as they peel back the layers of Playa de Palma. You will discover how a quiet fishing coast was engineered into an industrial leisure machine, how architecture controls behavior, and how a simple beach hut became a mythical brand. From the modernist silence of the Glass Church to the cathedral-like excess of Mega Park, this tour reveals the economic and cultural mechanics behind the party. - 2.2 km route with 8 stops in 104 minutes - Themes: Identity, Migration and Globalization and Social Fabric - Self-guided podcast tour - Flexible access through the app
