Casa Broner House, Ibiza Town

Home & studio of German architect & painter Erwin Broner

featured in Sights & sites

Built in 1960, this house, a key piece of modern architecture in Ibiza, was declared of cultural interest in 2000.

Erwin Broner arrived on the White Isle in 1934, fleeing from nazi Germany due to his Jewish origins. He founded the group Ibiza59 together with other artists, and he was known for his architectural creations, mixing traditional Ibizan shapes with contemporary elements. His own house was built between 1959 and 1960 in the fishermen's quarter of Sa Penya, in Ibiza Town.

The house was donated to the town in 2005 by his widow, Gisela Broner. After careful restoration works, it was open to the public showcasing the works of Broner. It has two floors and a garden, with a large window overlooking the sea and a workshop on the ground floor. A small bridge was built over the cliff where the house stands to allow for separate access to both levels.
