Talayotic Setlement...

The Torretrencada talayotic settlement in the municipality of Ciutadella is particularly well known for its taula, one of the most spectacular on the island. The settlement dates from the Talayotic era and was inhabited until the Middle Ages, as indicated by pottery remains found on the surface.

Apart from the imposing taula, with a pilaster still in evidence at the back, the settlement consists of a talayot, the remains of a perimeter wall, foundations of what may have been houses and several hypogeums.
