We may find preserved arcades and wall fragments of many streets which indicate
us the existence of an ancient villa enclosure.
Of all the monuments of the village, the Vella's or the Sang's churches, from
the XVI and the XVII century, highlight. They are a Romanesque construction,
made of stone and with one and only nave.
The Santa Anna's Convent, that was active until 1835, is under the Calvary's mountain.
The Nova Church, built between 1578 and 1630, has just one nave and some
lateral chapels between the buttresses.
Can Cosme and Abadia, houses built at the XVII century, of Renaissance style,
have pediments on the windows.
Casa de la Vila, with a Renaissance style façade of 1581, has windows with
ornamental motives and pediments upon the arcades.
The Saint Miquel's church, kept out from the city wall on the XIV century,
and its surrounding area was assigned as a cemetery.
Pont dels Moros is a medieval bridge upon the Glorieta river.
