Encyclopedic overview
Son Servera ( Catalan pronunciation: [son səɾˈve.ɾə]) is a municipality in northeast Mallorca, in the Balearic Islands, Spain.
Founded in 1300 by James I of Aragon, in the lands of the Servera family, Son Servera was first documented in 1354 with the name of Benicanella, which would later become two towns: Son Fra Garí and Ca l'Hereu which would then become Son Servera. In 1814, king Ferdinand VII puts Son Servera municipality in Arta. In 1920, the population was struck by plague, but in 1934 the population reached 1,000 inhabitants and returned to the status of municipality.
