Monument a Frédéric Chopin
The Monument a Frédéric Chopin stands in Valldemossa, Spain, amid Mallorca’s tranquil mountain landscape. The island’s mild climate frames this tribute to a stay linked with music. Quiet mountain surroundings give the place a strong connection with the setting that welcomed Chopin.
In winter 1838/39, Frédéric Chopin stayed here with his companion George Sand during a restorative period. His health was already failing during that stay. Valldemossa’s landscape and mild climate inspired some of his most beautiful piano works despite his condition. The monument preserves the connection between Chopin and Valldemossa. One remembered winter ties this Mallorcan village to the composer’s creative life.
