es Mercadal

Among the towns of the Balearic Islands, es Mercadal stands out for its setting below Monte Toro, Menorca’s highest summit. This inland settlement occupies a central position on the island, while its municipality extends north to the Bay of Fornells. The Sanctuary of the Virgin of Monte Toro crowns the hill above town and remains one of Menorca’s most recognisable religious landmarks. Menorca has been a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve since 1993, and the island’s dry-stone walls, farmland and coastal wetlands form an important part of that protected cultural landscape.
