역사
Menorca has prehistoric monuments from the Bronze Age, including talayots and navetas. The island was held by Phoenicians, Romans and Moors, and the Catalans took it in 1287. Ciutadella was the capital until the British moved it to Maó in 1722, in the period when they ruled the island in the 18th century.
The town has kept its medieval layout and aristocratic palaces. Menorca was declared a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve in 1993.
