Museu Arqueològic de Son Fornés
About This Museum
This place is such a hidden gem—it's an archaeology museum cleverly tucked inside a rustic, 1800s flour mill. The entire collection comes from just one spot, the Son Fornés settlement, which gives you this incredible, deep dive into a single ancient community. You'll find everything from massive talayots (those cool Bronze Age towers) to the tiny, personal items people used every day. It feels less like a sterile museum and more like you're piecing together a story that's been waiting 3,000 years to be told.
Collection Highlights
The star of the show is the talayotic material, including huge circular stones and pillars from the site's central monuments. They also have a fascinating array of domestic life on display—think ancient pottery, bone tools for weaving, and even remnants of their livestock.
Visitor Information
It's in the heart of Montuïri, easy to find and wander over to after exploring the village. Just double-check their opening hours online before you go, as they can be seasonal.
Architecture & Building
The building itself is a beautiful piece of history; it's a traditional Mallorcan flour mill with thick stone walls and all the rustic charm you'd hope for.
