===Archduke Ludwig Salvator of Austria=== [[File:192 Monument a l'arxiduc Lluís Salvador, jardins de la Cartoixa (Valldemossa).jpg|thumb|left|upright|A sculpture of Ludwig Salvator in Mallorca]] [[Archduke Ludwig Salvator of Austria]] ({{langx|ca|Arxiduc Lluís Salvador}}) was a pioneer of tourism in the Balearic Islands. He first arrived on the island in 1867, travelling under his title "Count of Neuendorf". He later settled in Mallorca, buying up wild areas of land in order to preserve and enjoy them. Nowadays, a number of hiking routes are named after him.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.mallorcaaventura.com/mallorca-trekking/article/cami-de-l-arxiduc |title=Camí de l'Arxiduc |language=ca |trans-title=Path of the Archduke |website=Mallorca Aventura |access-date=28 September 2017|archive-url=https://archive.today/20130128030528/http://www.mallorcaaventura.com/mallorca-trekking/article/cami-de-l-arxiduc |archive-date=28 January 2013 |url-status=dead }}</ref> Ludwig Salvator loved the island of Mallorca. He became fluent in Catalan, carried out research into the island's flora and fauna, history, and culture to produce his main work, ''Die Balearen'', a comprehensive collection of books about the Balearic Islands, consisting of 7 volumes. It took him 22 years to complete.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.ludwig-salvator.com/balearen.htm |title=Die Balearen in Wort und Bild |language=de |trans-title=The Balearic Islands in words and pictures |access-date=29 December 2014 |archive-date=29 December 2014 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141229203000/http://www.ludwig-salvator.com/balearen.htm |url-status=live }}</ref> Nowadays, several streets or buildings on the island are named after him (i.e., ''Arxiduc Lluís Salvador'').
