Must-see attractions
Mercat de Peix
Menorca
　　Set in a pleasing 1895 building dressed in elegant green-and-white-check tiles, the city's small fish market is one of Spain's few remaining examples of 19th-century cast-iron architecture. ...
Plaça des Born
Menorca
　　Ciutadella’s main square is a gracious affair, framed by handsome 19th-century buildings like the neoclassical Palau Torre-Saura and fortress-like Ajuntament. The obelisk at its centre was raised to commemorate the townsfolk who died trying to ward off the Turks on 9 July 1558. For the finest view of the port...
Església i Claustre del Socors

The cathedral was badly damaged during both the 1558...
Palau Salort
Menorca
　　A couple of Ciutadella's magnificent noble homes are open to the public seasonally, including the splendid 1813 Palau Salort, which unfolds behind a neoclassical facade. On the ceiling of the entrance hall you'll spot the Salort family crest, before climbing to the dance hall, British-inspired library, kitchen (allegedly Menorca's largest)...
