Hiking Route Map 1
Son Vic Vell (R1 - 023)
A historical estate showcasing the legacy of land division and control, offering insights into past societal structures and local economy.
Not everyone had a say here
This was not just a house. It was the centre of a system.
Following the Christian conquest, the land was divided up and organised into large estates that remained in the hands of a select few. These estates became the linchpin of the local economy and way of life.
Everything was organised from here: the fields, the pastures, the forests, the water and the roads.
But not everyone occupied the same place. Landowners, lords and labourers shared the space… but not the same conditions.
This complex reflects not only a way of life. It also reveals a form of control.
