Esporles
Esporles (Catalan pronunciation: [əsˈpoɾ.ləs]) is a locality and Spanish municipality of the autonomous community of the Balearic Islands.
Situated on the island of Majorca, around the zone of the Serra de Tramuntana.
It's about 15 km from Palma de Mallorca. The town is divided into Vilavella and Vilanova. In its territory it also includes small urbanizations, like Ses Rotgetes de Canet y Es Verger.
Its economy was traditionally based on agriculture and animal husbandry, which is shown in its mansion farm-museum La Granja. Tourism, like in most of the Balearic Islands is now the base of its economy. The textile industry was also very important in its economy, but in the present day there only remain traces of the factories or buildings. Some to this day remain empty but most have been transformed into housing. One of the biggest factories was transformed into the local library Sa Fabrica (opened in 2010).
