Visit the old prison and city gate of Santanyí
La Porta Murada, is the name of one of the old guard towers that was once a part of the fortified city wall. The wall, was built in the 16th century, where pirate attacks on Santanyi was intensive.
Throughout the 19th, and first half of the 20th century, La Porta Murada served as a prison, but is now just a monument to the city’s long-time defence system. Inside the gate, you can see the prison the small inconvenient prison cell.
The port was last renovated in 1987, and has been a monument of Santanyí ever since.
