Its prehistoric vestiges give way to a Roman Turissa, a medieval Tursa and a modern Tossa, first turned into a refuge of artists and intellectuals and later in generous host of tourists and visitors. There is nothing like approaching our historic city and getting lost in it between our alleys and ramparts.

• It is especially advisable to dare to climb up to the lighthouse, crossing the enclosure of the wall imagining ancient scenes of time, as invasions or battles, to climb to the canons that still decorate the outer walls and to defend the city of the pirates, as they did the old inhabitants from town.

  This history can only be recreated here, in our village, as it is the only example of a medieval fortified population that still exists on the Catalan coast, and which helps to give an idea of the importance it has for the inhabitants of the town, as a Respect for their past and pride of their present.
