Cultural Landscape of the Serra de Tramuntana

The Cultural Landscape of the Serra de Tramuntana (Cultural Landscape of the Serra de Tramuntana) is situated in a mountain range that runs parallel to the northwest coast of Mallorca Island. Over thousands of years, agriculture developed in a resource-scarce environment has transformed the land's appearance, and a network of interconnected water management facilities—including waterwheels—has been built around agricultural units originating from the feudal era. The defining features of this landscape include its agricultural terraces, an interlinked system of water infrastructure including waterwheels, as well as dry-stone constructions and farmsteads.
