Esglèsia de Sant Domingo, Catholic church in Dalt Vila, Ibiza, Spain.

The Esglèsia de Sant Domingo features a single nave covered by a barrel vault and decorated with frescoes painted by Vicent Matas in 1884, while its distinctive ochre tile domes cap each side chapel and contrast with the whitewashed walls of the exterior facade.

Originally founded in the late 16th century when Dominican friars received land donations from the Universitat de Eivissa, construction began in 1592 and continued for several decades, with the building later serving as the town hall after the dissolution of the religious community in 1835.

The church has served as a place where religious and civic communities have coexisted for centuries, hosting traditional festivities, processions and daily worship that reflect the spiritual identity of Ibiza and its residents.

The church is open daily from 10:00 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. and from 4:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m., with mass held at 7:00 p.m. during fall and winter and at 8:00 p.m. during spring and summer throughout the year.

The building uniquely combines its original religious function with its role as the town hall, a result of the 19th-century dissolution of the Dominican monastery and partial conversion of the convent structure for civic use.

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.
