Cap de Cavalleria Ecomuseum, Ecomuseum in Es Mercadal, Spain

The Cap de Cavalleria Ecomuseum stands on the northern coast of Menorca, next to Cavalleria Cape and the ancient port of Sanitja.

Archaeological excavations at the site have revealed a Roman military fort from the first century BC and remains of the Roman city of Sanisera.

The museum presents exhibitions about local traditions, including lime kilns production and the construction of dry stone walls across the Menorcan landscape.

Visitors can explore seven marked routes around the museum grounds to discover archaeological sites, native flora, and coastal defense structures.

The Santa Teresa building contains scale models and artifacts recovered from the port of Sanitja, documenting 2000 years of Mediterranean maritime history.
