Puig des Molins Necropolis

Necròpoli del Puig des Molins

Part of the World Heritage site and one of the best-preserved Phoenician-Punic necropolises in the Mediterranean, with an archaeology museum on site.

Puig des Molins (“Windmill Hill”) is a hillside on the western side of Dalt Vila. From the 7th century BC it served as a burial ground for Phoenicians and Carthaginians (Punics). With about 3,000 known underground tombs, it is one of the largest and best-preserved Punic necropolises in the Mediterranean, and it is included in the Ibiza World Heritage listing. The museum on site displays pottery, amulets, terracotta goddess figurines and other grave goods, and a path leads down into some of the tombs. It is about a 10-minute walk from the old town. The museum is usually closed on Mondays, so check the official site.
