The town of Soller is connected to Palma by an electric train and to Port de Soller by an electric tram. The train to Palma was introduced in 1912 and in 2005 the contract to run the line by Ferrocarril de Sóller SA was extended by another 50 years. To celebrate the company created the Train de l'Art Foundation. There are now pieces of public art on display in Can Prunera, Palma, Soller and Port de Soller.
In the case of Port de Soller this small sculpture park was built next to the main tram station and near to the marina.
The majority of the pieces are abstract, but there is also a figurative piece and an insect sculpture.
