Puig des Molins, Ibiza, Archaeological museum and necropolis in Ibiza, Spain

The Monographic Museum features five exhibition rooms displaying artifacts, burial chambers, and historical collections from ancient Mediterranean civilizations found at the necropolis site.

The necropolis, established by Phoenicians in the 7th century BC, evolved into a 10,000-square-meter burial ground reflecting different historical periods through the Roman era.

The museum exhibits funeral practices and artifacts including necklaces, bronze tools, weapons, amulets, and decorated ostrich eggs from Phoenician, Punic, and Roman civilizations.

Located at Via Romana 31 in Ibiza, the museum operates Tuesday through Friday, offering regular guided tours and reduced admission for students and groups.

The necropolis contains thousands of underground burial chambers, making it the largest Phoenician-Punic cemetery discovered in the western Mediterranean region.

Hidden places in the Balearic islands

From the underground lakes of Drach Caves to the ancient ruins of Torre d'en Galmés, the Balearic Islands contain numerous hidden sites. The archipelago features remote beaches with clear waters, historic buildings, and natural reserves. Notable locations include the Phoenician necropolis in Ibiza, the salt flats of Las Salinas, and the vintage train route through Mallorca's mountains. The islands house multiple caves with rock formations, coastal wetlands for bird watching, and traditional markets selling local goods.

What to do and see in Ibiza? Must-visit sites

Ibiza showcases a Mediterranean heritage that extends far beyond its reputation for partying. The island features Dalt Vila, a fortified medieval quarter from the 16th century, listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site, with a Gothic cathedral and a castle overlooking the port. The coastline alternates between protected coves like Cala Saladeta, nestled among limestone rocks and pine forests, and larger beaches such as Cala Tarida, stretching over 900 meters. Offshore, the islet of Es Vedra rises from the sea at an elevation of 1,253 feet (382 meters), creating a nature reserve home to falcons and wild goats. The shoreline reveals preserved bays with Mediterranean pines descending to white sand. Cala Comte includes three distinct coves framed by rocky formations, while Cala Bassa provides easy access via parking and seaside amenities. The Punta Arabí market, established in 1973, has brought together local artisans and creators for half a century, offering textiles, jewelry, and decorative objects. An island that combines history, nature, and local life away from nightlife scenes.
