This property is much more than just a building; it is a living testament to a family history marked by dramatic personal events, significant social changes, and contact with leading figures in the architecture and culture of a crucial era in the Balearic Islands. The estate, which was home to the Cifre family for over a century, retains a great deal of symbolic and historical significance that has influenced the local culture and educational history of the island. According to historian and archivist Pere Salas Vives, who has dedicated years to studying and compiling information about the Cifre family and their property, the estate was acquired by the founder of Caixa Colonya, Guillem Cifre Coll, at a very young age. Cifre inherited the Colonya estate from a local landowner who had no children. At that time, the estate was just one of the businessman's many possessions, but it became one of the most important as Cifre consolidated his fortune and established himself as a key figure in Mallorcan society. This acquisition took place during the early years of the 20th century, when Cifre was beginning to build his own legend in the Balearic Islands.</p>]]></description>
