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.
