After centuries of occupation

This archaeological site located at Punta Sarridal is an enclave with a long history spanning from the Iron Age to later periods. Recent archaeological excavations have revealed occupation dating back to at least the 5th century B.C. and continuing until the 5th century A.D. In addition to its imposing walls, one of the most unique and significant finds is the monumento con forno (sauna castrexa) (Megalithic monument used as a sort of prehistoric sauna).
