The salt workers’ parish church
This church offers one of the most beautiful views in the Ses Salines Natural Park, particularly when returning from the beaches, when its white, unassuming silhouette stands out against the salt pans. Built in the 18th century on the orders of Charles III, as evidenced by the royal coat of arms on its façade, this simple, small church was erected to provide religious services for the workers employed in the salt pans, which had been reclaimed for the Crown during that period.
Inside, you will find a church of humble design, faithful to the traditional Ibizan style except for the absence of a ‘porxo’. It features a south-facing rectangular nave, covered by a gabled roof, and a small stepped belfry which lends its silhouette a unique charm. Adjoining the church is the former parish house, now the Ses Salines Interpretation Centre.
