Sights in Ibiza

When you travel across the island you will see many remnants of windmills, once glorious, and now just a few spokes sticking out from a ruined tower.

This art gallery showcases some of the best names in contemporary art in Ibiza Town.

These caves date back 100,000 years and contain various fossils and bone remains.

Standing at 23 metres in height this impressive monument sits nestled amongst the trees in the small residential village of Monte Cristo just 3.5km to the north of Ibiza Town.

Situated in the west of Ibiza the small town of Santa Agnes comprises just two restaurants and a beautiful church.

Historically the building dates back to the 16th century and was originally a monastery. In 1835 the building became the property of the local council and the monks were forced to move. Since then, it turned into a hospital, a school, a prison and today it still belongs to the Eivissa Council.

This pretty church was founded in the mid 15th century and has been very well preserved. Inside there is an impressive alter painting illustrating significant stages in the life of the Virgin Mary.

Just two years before his death in 1981, Ibizan painter Narciso Puget Riquer donated his paintings, plus his fathers to the local government.

In a pretty Ibizan house is the Ethnographic Museum of Ibiza. Permanently on display are artefacts that demonstrate how life was in Ibiza in the past.

This stunning church is hard to miss as it's situated at the top of a high hill overlooking the whole of Santa Eulalia.

This museum houses all the history of Ibiza and Formentera from the past 3,000 years.

There is not much to the village of Sant Mateu in the west of the island of Ibiza, but the church takes up a fairly large mass of land in the middle of it.

Beautiful and simple church that is situated on top of the hill overlooking the town of San Miguel and the surrounding countryside.

Just outside the village of San Lorenzo in the north, there are echoes of an old Moorish settlement, seven houses and two towers with a distinctive defensive function

Situated a little away from the town centre in the older part of San Rafael the church is white washed in the traditional fashion.

This is the largest necropolis in the world, housing up to 4,000 tombs from all over the Mediterranean. The ancient cemetery was set up by the Phoenicians at the end of the 7th century.

This museum is located within one of the oldest houses in Dalt Vila, Casa de La Cúria, built around the old Andalusian wall and shows Ibiza town when it was a medieval Muslim town called Madina Yabisa, an important Muslim city during the Middle Ages.

When you drive into Es Cubells the only thing that you notice is the white washed stone buildings and how pristine they look in their well kept surroundings.
