THE
MEGALITHIC COMPLEX ROSES COSTA BRAVA |
The
Megalithic complex:
Inhabited since remote
times, Roses possesses one
of the most complete and
impressive megalithic
itineraries of the Costa
Brava. Three large dolmens
conserve the memory of the
area's first settlers: the
Creu d'en Cobertella (the
Cobertella Cross)
(3000-2700 BC), the Llit de
la Generala (the General's
Bed) (3200 BC) and
the Cap de l'Home (the Man's
Cape). The Creu
d'en Cobertella, the largest
dolmen in Catalonia, dates
from the Neolithic period and was
declared a historic and artistic
monument in 1964. It has a
large gallery covered by a
four-ton slab which measures
5.20 m long, 2.45 m wide and
2.14 high. The tour around
the origins of the town also
reveals the funeral chamber
of the Casa Cremada (the
Burnt House) and its
two menhirs (4th-3rd
millennia BC), and the
cave-dolmen of the Rec de la
Cuana (the Cuana irrigation
channel), from 2500 BC. |
