CHAPEL SA TANCA VELLA

In the heart of Sant Francesc, this tiny Romanesque chapel is the first Christian sanctuary to be built on the island. Founded in 1336, it has a rectangular structure with a barrel vault and no ornamentation. The chapel, which had become too small to accommodate the faithful, was abandoned in the 18th century in favour of the church. Annexed to a house that gave it its name, Sa Tanca Vella, the tiny building was bought by the town in 1986. Restored, the chapel was declared a monument of cultural interest in 1993.
