A little excursion into the history of Felantix
The history of Felantix: The settlement in Felanitx dates back to the Bronze Age, where the first people settled in caves at the Puig de Castell de Santueri. The Roman name fenalicius is derived from the Latin fenum (hay), which indicates the agricultural importance of the region. The town of Felanitx was only founded by the Moors in the 11th century. The numerous windmills (no longer functional) that were built on a rocky ridge above the town and were previously used to produce flour can be seen from afar. Mallorcan capers, apricots and almonds are important agricultural products today.
Felanitx was the first wine-growing region on Mallorca. At the end of the 18th century, various grape varieties were planted on an area of around 2,200 hectares in the municipality. Towards the end of the 19th century, phylloxera destroyed a large part of the vines. Today around 75 % of Mallorcan white wine comes from the area around Felanitx.
