Summary

Ibiza's cultural heritage, comprising tangible and intangible assets such as the old city of Ibiza, rural architecture, cultural landscapes, and traditional folklore, remains underpreserved and underpromoted as a tourist offering. While some restoration efforts like those on walls and rural churches have succeeded, administrative obstacles hinder effective preservation. The study highlights that despite Ibiza's global recognition for nightlife and luxury tourism, other heritage forms lack testimonial or significant presence, indicating a gap in heritage management and promotion strategies.
