Ciudadela
The former capital until the British came along in the 18th century, Ciudadela is the jewel of Menorca. While it has a buttoned-up appearance to it, there is no mistaking its beauty. Ciudadela was ransacked and almost leveled along with the rest of the island by Redbeard’s Turks in the mid-16th century. The look of Ciudadela today comes from the 17th and 18th century, when the city gradually rebuilt itself. Notable are the many palatial homes and its Catedral, with traces of the former mosque still apparent.
