Torre des Molars. The great cliff

Defying a steep coastline we find Torre des Molars

Next to the port of Sant Miquel, we find the Torre Des Molar, part of the island’s defense project. Its arrival is somewhat uncomfortable, because its access is made through a road that departs from the entrance of the port of Sant Miquel, crossing the mountain to reach its highest point. A cliff about a hundred metres apart from the sea.

History of the Des Molar Tower

The Tower is part of the defensive strategy of the Ibizan coast. Its Construction date was established in the EIGHTEENTH century, specifically in 1763 and, although prepared to house defense Artillery,the tower was never armed. Given its strategic nature, and its breathtaking views, the Des Molar Towerwas used as a watchtower.
