An ancient legacy in stone
Menorca is home to one of the most fascinating prehistoric heritages of the Mediterranean: the Talayotic culture. These communities left their mark more than 3,000 years ago with impressive stone constructions, such as talayots, navetas and taulas, which still defy the passage of time. Their purpose is still under study, but it is believed that they served defensive, religious and ceremonial purposes.
Unique monuments in the world
The megalithic complex of Menorca is so exceptional that it has been declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. World Heritage by UNESCO. Among the most outstanding are the Naveta des Tudons, a collective tomb from the Bronze Age, and the taulas, huge “T” shaped structures that only exist in Menorca. These vestiges offer us a window to the past, allowing us to imagine the life of the first civilizations of the island.
