    800 BC
    The Balearic island of Ibiza was originally colonized by the Phoenicians in the VIIIth century BC. The salt mines there have their origins in just this epoch. The first official reference to the salt pans of Ibiza dates from the time of Punic rule, which dates back to 540 BC. started. Under the influence of the Roman Empire was the management of the salt pans from 122 BC. continued until the demise of the Empire in 476 AD. Then Ibiza was visited by the Vandals and the Byzantines. For almost half a millennium, the island suffered from constantly changing occupiers, until finally in 902 AD. was conquered by the Moors. These essentially took over the Punic-era plants and production methods of salt extraction.

    1235 AD
    After the reconquest of the island in the course of the Reconquista, the salt pans experienced important technical innovations that significantly improved both the quality of the salt and the productivity of the extraction. Already at that time the salt from Ibiza - converted to today`s conditions - sold around 25,000 tons per year. Salt was a strategic product at that time because it was almost the only means of preserving food. For a long time, Ibiza, with its salt, was a valued business partner of the most powerful republics of the Middle Ages, such as Genoa, Florence and Venice. After the end of the Spanish War of Succession in 1715, the salt pans were placed under the administration of the crown. However, the plants fell noticeably and production fell to only 7,000 tonnes per year.

    1871 AD
    In 1871, the salt pans were sold to two Mallorcan merchants at a price of around 1.1 million pesetas (about EUR 9.15 million). In 1878 they founded the Fabrica de la Sal de Ibiza, the nucleus of today`s operating company Salinera Espanola SA. In this new, privately-economically organized epoch, large investments were made, which ensured that already in 1888 again 50,000 tons of salt were produced, which would mean a successful year even by today`s standards.
