thumb|250px|The 365 Calvari steps Pollença () is a town and municipality in the northern part of the island of Mallorca, near Cap de Formentor and Alcúdia. It lies inland, about west of its port, Port de Pollença.
==History== The origin of the name "Pollença" can be traced back to the name of the Roman settlement of Pollentia, the excavated remains of which lie several kilometers away, at the modern municipality of Alcúdia. The displacement of the toponym is due to the fact that, during Late Antiquity, the city of Pollentia became depopulated, but the name remained to designate the region. In the Islamic period, the capital of the district, called Bullansa, was located in the place where, centuries later, the town of Pollença would be founded.
