The history of Mont-ras and its surroundings

Although archaeological evidence of a presence during the Roman era has been found in the municipal area of Mont-ras, the origins of the municipality are closely linked to those of Palafrugell. In fact, already in the 13th century, the church of Mont-ras was under the jurisdiction of the castle of Palafrugell. Mont-ras did not become independent as an autonomous municipality until 1858. The town's history is full of ancestral legends, such as that of the Mas de cal Gall Peric.
