Cancelled in 2020 and 2021, the Moors and Christians battle in Pollensa returned on Tuesday evening. The climax to the Patrona fiestas, the re-enactment recalls the events of May 31, 1550, when Ottoman pirates, commanded by Dragut (Turgut Reis), carried out a raid that was repelled by the people of Pollensa, led by Joan Mas.
