According to chronicles, after the creation of a hospice was approved in 1693, two or three religious members occupied some caves in the cliffs facing the Portal de Mar, which they used as living quarters and a space for teaching.<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; color: revert; font-family: inherit; font-style: inherit;\"> <div class=\"g g-5\"><div class=\"g-single a-66\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.civitatis.com\/en\/cala-en-bosch\/coves-boat-tour\/?aid=99960\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">\r\n    <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.viajamenorca.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/INGLES_ROSE-5-1.jpg\" width=\"350\" height=\"210\" title=\"Boat trip around the southern coves\" alt=\"Boat trip around the southern coves\" \/>\r\n<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Anastasi Strader from Mah\u00f3n, who had professed at the Carme Convent in Barcelona in 1655, sold a family house they owned in Pla de sa Parr\u00f2quia and dedicated the proceeds to buying another in what is now Plaza del Carme, very close to the current entrance of Sa Pla\u00e7a. It is here where the Carmelites created the first hospice, the community&#8217;s house, where they also provided education.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Public Oratory<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Shortly after, the religious members asked to open a public oratory, a wish that met with opposition from the Franciscans, who were jealous of their presence in Mah\u00f3n, as well as from part of the clergy and the population. They had to wait until 1701 to open this tiny chapel of 25 square meters. Even so, pressure from their opponents caused it to close in 1702, and it did not reopen until 1705.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">The Carmelites did not yield in their intentions to build a convent (with a church) in Mah\u00f3n. In 1725, Pope Benedict XIII granted them the status of a monastery, and construction began. However, the Franciscans and the English Governor Richard Kane opposed it once again, and the works were halted.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Support from the New English Governor, Sir William Blakeney<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"> Construction remained halted between 1728 and 1744. It was in the latter year that they received support from the new English Governor, Sir William Blakeney, but they still had to wait until 1750 to obtain the Royal License from His British Majesty. None of what they had previously built was useful, and they had to start anew.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">In 1750, the first stone was blessed. Although they began at the same time, the church works were blessed in 1754, whereas the convent was not finished until 1781. And even then, the entire east wing was left half-completed.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Present Day<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Currently, the visibility of the architectural complex in the city is very limited due to the surrounding and nearby buildings. However, originally, as an isolated building, it dominated the city due to its large volumes and its elevated, distinguished position, especially when viewed from the port of Mah\u00f3n.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_20255\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-20255\" style=\"width: 320px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.viajamenorca.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/IMG_20220204_125811_stitch-scaled.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-20255\" title=\"Plaza del Mercado de Mah\u00f3n\" src=\"https:\/\/www.viajamenorca.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/IMG_20220204_125811_stitch-350x245.jpg\" alt=\"Plaza del Mercado de Mah\u00f3n\" width=\"330\" height=\"231\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.viajamenorca.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/IMG_20220204_125811_stitch-350x245.jpg 350w, https:\/\/www.viajamenorca.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/IMG_20220204_125811_stitch-1024x716.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.viajamenorca.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/IMG_20220204_125811_stitch-768x537.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.viajamenorca.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/IMG_20220204_125811_stitch-1536x1073.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.viajamenorca.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/IMG_20220204_125811_stitch-2048x1431.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 330px) 100vw, 330px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-20255\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Mah\u00f3n Market Square<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">The original square-plan convent, with the largest courtyard among those located in Menorca, is distributed over two levels: on the ground floor, the north and west wings housed the cells of the religious members, the kitchen, the refectory, and some storage. The east wing, uncovered, was a space dedicated to stables, warehouses, and enclosures.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">The south wing is unusable as it forms a party wall with the church. In the northeast corner, there is a water wheel and a small cistern that provides water to the convent. On the upper floor, only the north and east wings are occupied, used as cells, a library, the prior\u2019s room, and the chapter house.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">The ensemble of the church and convent is a fine witness to austere Neoclassicism in Menorca. Regarding the convent, numerous subsequent interventions have damaged it from an architectural point of view. Ornamentally, we highlight the twenty large corbels in the north and west corridors, the work of sculptor Ferran Miguel Comas.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Departure of the Friars<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">The Carmelite friars had little time to enjoy the convent they had worked so hard to build. Forty years after its inauguration, during one of those liberal waves sweeping Spain in the early 19th century, the convent passed to the State and they were expelled. As we know, waves come and go, and just two years later, during an absolutist period, the friars returned. <div class=\"g g-7\"><div class=\"g-single a-58\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.viajamenorca.com\/guia-turistica\/transportes\/alquiler-de-coches\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">\r\n    <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.viajamenorca.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/INGLES_BLUE-4-1.jpg\" width=\"350\" height=\"210\" title=\"Hire a car in Menorca\" alt=\"Hire a car in Menorca\" \/>\r\n<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">It was with the so-called Mendiz\u00e1bal Disentailment (1835) when the religious members finally abandoned the building. At that time, twenty people lived there. Some stayed in Mah\u00f3n. The prior, Joan Brocardo Cardona, moved to Alaior. Others began a process of secularization, and the rest left the island for other Carmelite communities.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-size: 16pt;\">\u203a<\/span> <span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\">New Uses for the Convent<\/span><\/h2>\n<h2><span style=\"font-size: 16pt;\">\u203a <\/span><span style=\"font-size: 16pt;\">The Palace of Justice<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Since the early 19th century, Mah\u00f3n had demanded decent judicial facilities. Governor Ram\u00edrez defended the creation of new Courts and a prison where the Miranda square viewpoint is now located. From 1838, the City Council allocated part of the building for judicial premises on a temporary basis.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">In 1881, due to the building&#8217;s degradation, the City Council launched the creation of a Palace of Justice, which did not succeed due to a lack of funding. For some years, the municipality had to rent private properties for these purposes.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Construction<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">In 1888, a failed project was presented to create the Palace of Justice in what we now know as Plaza Col\u00f3n, which would have made the square disappear.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_20279\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-20279\" style=\"width: 320px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.viajamenorca.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/IMG_20220204_130552_1_stitch-scaled.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-20279\" title=\"Palacio de Justicia de Mah\u00f3n\" src=\"https:\/\/www.viajamenorca.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/IMG_20220204_130552_1_stitch-350x267.jpg\" alt=\"Palacio de Justicia de Mah\u00f3n\" width=\"330\" height=\"252\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.viajamenorca.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/IMG_20220204_130552_1_stitch-350x267.jpg 350w, https:\/\/www.viajamenorca.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/IMG_20220204_130552_1_stitch-1024x782.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.viajamenorca.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/IMG_20220204_130552_1_stitch-768x586.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.viajamenorca.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/IMG_20220204_130552_1_stitch-1536x1172.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.viajamenorca.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/IMG_20220204_130552_1_stitch-2048x1563.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 330px) 100vw, 330px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-20279\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Palace of Justice<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">At the end of the 19th century, the great undertaking of building a Palace of Justice in the Carme Convent was launched. We say &#8220;building&#8221; because it was decided to act on the east corridor, which had no upper floor and part of which was uncovered, where the market&#8217;s stables and service warehouses were located.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">This was a high-impact project resulting in what is now the Hearing Room and what had been the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.viajamenorca.com\/guia-turistica\/rutas-e-itinerarios\/itinerario-cultural\/museos\/museo-hernandez-sanz-hernandez-mora\/\">Hern\u00e1ndez Mora Collection-Museum<\/a><\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">In this entire wing, the different departments of the Justice Administration and the Judicial archives of Mah\u00f3n were distributed, and later, the headquarters of the Property Registry. This use continued until around 1983 when, facing the threat of collapse, a hasty move was made to the building known as &#8220;of the unions&#8221; in the same Plaza Miranda.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-size: 16pt;\">\u203a <\/span><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\">The Prison<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">An immediate use of the convent was as a prison. The Old prison was inhumane and unhealthy, insufficient and lacking basic hygiene. The enlightened citizens of Mah\u00f3n in 1840, along with the doctor Rafel Hern\u00e1ndez, advocated for the creation of a prison that met basic conditions to protect the dignity of prisoners. For this purpose, the entire west wing of the convent and part of the courtyard were dedicated.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Today it would seem inconceivable to us, but back then the prison was located right in the center of the city, sharing the same building where people went shopping and boys and girls went to school. In addition to the prisoners, the building was inhabited by the guards and their families.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">This use remained in effect until the late 1960s. Even once the prison was vacated, the City Council opened a detention center for preventive detainees there, which remained operational until well into the 1980s, when rehabilitation works were carried out to convert it into the headquarters of the Conservatory.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-size: 16pt;\">\u203a <\/span><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\">The Civil Guard<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">For a few years (at least between 1860 and 1884), the cells on the ground floor of the west wing (under the prison) housed the Civil Guard barracks, where a handful of families resided.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Cuban detainees (1870-1884), anarchists and trade unionists from the late 19th century, and the rebels of 1934 were held in this prison. After the Civil War, some of Franco&#8217;s political prisoners were imprisoned there, and in some cases, they faced court-martial in the same building.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-size: 16pt;\">\u203a <\/span><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\">The School<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">The old convent of the Claustre del Carme has also (always) had an educational use. From the early years, school facilities were installed there in the upper north wing. During a specific period (between 1838 and 1870), it also hosted the Academy of Sciences and Fine Arts of the City of Mah\u00f3n, the Nautical School, and the Secondary Education College.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">National School for Girls<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Beyond these higher teachings, the building&#8217;s vocation was as a national school for girls. In 1934, within the framework of educational investments carried out by the Second Republic and after significant reforms led by the architect Francesc Femen\u00edas, the old school became a graded school and was named National Girls&#8217; School No. 2 of Mah\u00f3n.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">In October 1936, bombs from the Italian aviation (assisting Franco) collapsed part of the school, which closed its doors until 1939. After costly repairs, the center reopened. In 1955, the school took the name Virgen del Carmen.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">The school remained in operation until 1975, when it had to be evacuated in haste due to the threat of ruin. At its peak occupancy, it welcomed nearly 300 students. Its memory is still very much present for many women of Mah\u00f3n.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-size: 16pt;\">\u203a <\/span><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\">From Ancient Markets to the Current Market<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Before occupying the Carme convent, the markets were centered in three areas: broadly speaking, in the current Plaza Col\u00f3n we found the fruit and vegetable market; in the current Plaza Espa\u00f1a, we found the fishmongers; and in an alleyway off it and a section above\u2014what we now know as sa costa de ses Voltes\u2014the butchers.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_20267\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-20267\" style=\"width: 320px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.viajamenorca.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/IMG_20220204_130126_stitch-scaled.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-20267\" title=\"Mah\u00f3n Market\" src=\"https:\/\/www.viajamenorca.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/IMG_20220204_130126_stitch-350x318.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"330\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.viajamenorca.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/IMG_20220204_130126_stitch-350x318.jpg 350w, https:\/\/www.viajamenorca.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/IMG_20220204_130126_stitch-1024x930.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.viajamenorca.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/IMG_20220204_130126_stitch-768x698.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.viajamenorca.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/IMG_20220204_130126_stitch-1536x1395.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.viajamenorca.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/IMG_20220204_130126_stitch-2048x1860.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 330px) 100vw, 330px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-20267\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mah\u00f3n Market<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">The market&#8217;s occupation of the entire ground floor and the convent courtyard was gradual starting from 1850. First, some stalls selling meat and provisions, oil, sugar, liqueurs, and wine were opened; later, even fish was sold for a few years.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Relocation<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">In 1883, despite opposition from those affected, the City Council decided to move the fruit and vegetable trade, located in the Retir and des Padronet area, to Sa Pla\u00e7a. Soon more cells were filled, dedicated to selling various products, and a couple of cafes were opened, including El Trueno, which is still in operation today.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">In 1905, coinciding with the construction of the Palace of Justice, an integrated market project was presented: meat, fish, fruit, and vegetables. In the end, it did not prosper and the fish market was separated, being built in the place it currently occupies, where it opened in 1927. Meanwhile, the City Council made a large investment (1917-1918) to adapt a series of cells in the north wing as butcher shops that would meet all sanitary standards.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">The Golden Age of Sa Pla\u00e7a<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">In 1919, the City Council prohibited the sale of meat (except poultry and pork) outside Sa Pla\u00e7a. This was the moment of supply concentration in a single place, which favored price control and compliance with regulations\u2014another concern of the corporation. Until the war, this would be the golden age of Sa Pla\u00e7a as the center of Mah\u00f3n, lasting until the 1970s, when the first large commercial surfaces appeared in the industrial estate.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-size: 16pt;\">\u203a <\/span><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\">Cultural and Educational Services<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Between 1970 and 1983, due to the poor condition of the building, the prison, the school, and the judicial administration services were vacated. But it did not take long before these spaces hosted new uses, this time linked to art, culture, and education.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_20291\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-20291\" style=\"width: 320px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.viajamenorca.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/IMG_20220204_131052_1-scaled.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-20291\" title=\"Cultural space\" src=\"https:\/\/www.viajamenorca.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/IMG_20220204_131052_1-350x161.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"330\" height=\"152\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.viajamenorca.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/IMG_20220204_131052_1-350x161.jpg 350w, https:\/\/www.viajamenorca.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/IMG_20220204_131052_1-1024x472.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.viajamenorca.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/IMG_20220204_131052_1-768x354.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.viajamenorca.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/IMG_20220204_131052_1-1536x709.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.viajamenorca.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/IMG_20220204_131052_1-2048x945.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 330px) 100vw, 330px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-20291\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Cultural space, exhibition hall<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Thus, after major renovation works (1986-1989 and 1995-1998), these spaces were progressively reopened.<\/p>\n<p>The provisional headquarters of the Professional Conservatory of Music of the Balearic Islands in Menorca was established in the old prison; the municipal painting and ceramics classrooms were opened in the old school, and shortly after, the insular services of the UNED were established on the upper level.<\/p>\n<p>Exhibition spaces were created in the judicial offices and for about twenty years, the <span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.viajamenorca.com\/guia-turistica\/rutas-e-itinerarios\/itinerario-cultural\/museos\/museo-hernandez-sanz-hernandez-mora\/\"><strong>Hern\u00e1ndez Mora Collection<\/strong><\/a><\/span>, currently on display at Can Oliver, was housed there.

During the reforms of the 1990s, a new volume was also created, situated between the ground floor and the first floor, which is the current headquarters of the Rubi\u00f3 Tudur\u00ed Foundation and its library.<\/p>\n<p>We must add two significant circumstances: first, during the rehabilitation works, the cistern and the wellhead were removed, and all exterior constructions that had been attached to the convent walls were eliminated.<\/p>\n<p>Now, with the City Council&#8217;s acquisition of the building adjacent to the north wall, there is an expectation of improvement; the second has been the use of the central courtyard of the cloister as a suitable venue for artistic performances and open-air community activities.
