Philomena Robertson of Flowery Branch was the first to identify last edition’s Mystery Photo. She wrote: “I believe this is the Cathedral of Santa Maria of Palma, also commonly referred to as La Seu, it is a Gothic Roman Catholic cathedral located in Palma, Majorca, Spain.” The photo came from Tom Merkel of Berkeley Lake.
Also recognizing the photo was Ruthy Lachman Paul of Norcross: “This is in the city Palma de Mallorca, Spain and is the famous La Seu Cathedral. It is built on the base of an old mosque. The construction of this church began in 1229, but in practice only ended in 1601. The famous Spanish architect Antoni Gaudí called to assist the renovation plan in 1901. The cathedral is one of the many attractions in central Palma—is designed in the Gothic style and high walls which look like they come out from the sea itself. The height of 400 feet, and 180 feet wide. To visit La Seu is quite impressive.” Also identifying the picture was Harriet Nichols of Trickum.
