Discover the hidden wonder of Ibiza, the Necropolis del Puig des Molins. This historic gem, located in the middle of the island, is a window to times long gone. If you are staying at OneVillasIbiza, a visit to this special monument should not be missed. Dating back to Phoenician times, the Necropolis tells the story of Ibiza through the ages. From the 7th century b. Chr. to the Roman period: every stone and artifact tells you a piece of island history.
View Old Graves and Underground Tombs
The Necropolis del Puig des Molins is not just any old cemetery; it is the largest and one of the best preserved necropolises in the Mediterranean. There are more than 3,000 graves in this authentic cemetery, ranging from simple pits to complex underground chambers with pillars. The carefully carved tombs and tombs provide a glimpse into Ibiza’s Punic and Carthaginian periods. As you walk around here, you feel connected to the ancient cultures that once flourished here.
"The Necropolis del Puig des Molins is a silent witness to the stories and rituals of ancient civilizations."
Dive into History at the Archaeological Museum
Next to the cemetery is the Archaeological Museum of Puig des Molins, with a compact but impressive collection of objects excavated from the necropolis. Examples of the artifacts on display include jewelry, amphorae and sculptures. They give a good picture of the daily life and beliefs of the former inhabitants of Ibiza. The modern designed museum has a glass floor so you can see some of the tombs. It is therefore a nice addition to a visit to the necropolis.
