SÓLLER
The historic tram from Sóller to Port de Sóller.

Postcard published by Ediciones Palma Nº 2628 (1982).

Inaugurated on 4 October 1913, the 4.8 km tramway of Sóller is not only a tourist attraction, but also a means of public transport used for more than a century by the inhabitants of the small town to travel to its port and beaches and backwards. The tramway, besides transporting passengers, has also been used to transport boxes of fish from the docks to the market or oranges to the ships that sailed to the French ports in the past, to carry vegetables from the orchards to the town and even to carry coal and war materials to the naval base of the Navy located in the Port of Sóller.
