There are two places on the island of Mallorca called San Salvador, so there may be confusion. In Arta located the cathedral (sanctuary) and near the town of Felanitx - a monastery and a hotel. Both places are located on the hills and offer scenic views.

Initially, the Muslim fortress of Almudaina stood on this site. After the capture by the Catalans, the local mosque was converted into a Christian church. The walls were fortified in the 16th century to protect against pirates. And in 1825 appeared a modern church.
