Archeology: Torralba d'en Salort
This taula is 2.9 kilometers after Alaior on the newly tarred road (with bicycle path) to Cala en Porter on the righthand side.
The entrance fee is 4 Euros per person.
The well-conserved taula is almost 5 metres high and one of the tallest on Menorca.
Besides the sanctuary there are ...
- a huge talaiot
- a hypostyle (underground chamber)
- remains of another talaiot
- remains of a pre-Talaiotic house
- remains of an enclosure
- talaiotic houses
- a well
- a Medieval house.
A figure of a bronze bull found in this settlement is now housed at the Museum of Menorca.
A bit further down on the same road (in the direction of Cala en Porter) you'll find the archeological site of So Na Caçana.
