Museum of Minorca

Visitors have been sailing into Minorca’s ports since the Roman era—and even before that, when the island's original inhabitants, the Talayotic people, lived here. Learn about this history at the Museum of Minorca, whose small but rich collection is housed in a 17th-century convent near the Mahón waterfront. You'll see art and artifacts from the Talayotic, Roman and Moorish periods, along with exhibits on the island's signature crafts—Minorca has a long history of shoemaking.
