(Talayots)
Talayot of Torrellafuda

LOCATION:

Situation

At some hundreds of meters behind the house of Son Sintes, to which you arrives by a road that leaves the highway Maó-Ciutadella, to the left, about 300 m beyond the kilometre 37 (in direction to that second town).



MUNICIPAL DISTRICT:

Ciutadella.


DESCRIPTION:

Magnificent tower in frustum of cone form located exactly beside the not well preserved precinct of taula of the village of which it was part.


NEIGHBOURING MONUMENTS:

As we have already pointed out, the monument is part of a village, very covered for the vegetation, where the "taula" and a quite well conserved "wall" in which are distinguished some bastions and doors, highlight with that one. Between Son Sintes and the site, there is also la great "hypogeum" used like a stable.

Not very far, through the fields, there is the village of "Torretrencada".
