Monasterio de Sant Pere de Rodes - The Sant Pere de Rodes Monastery stands atop one of the peaks of the Rodes mountain range, a coastal chain in the northern part of Alt Empordà . It is among the many examples of Catalan Romanesque architecture, yet it stands out for its architectural sophistication. From the 11th to the 14th century, it was the main spiritual center of the County of Empúries, and its grandeur is evident in the large scale of the monastic complex. This includes the church, bell tower, cloister, sacristies, conventional living quarters, and the Abbot’s palace.
Outside, the portal, crafted by the Master of Cabestany, displayed various scenes from the life of Christ carved in white marble.
From the monastery, one can enjoy one of the best views of Cap de Creus. Just before reaching it, one can find the remains of the medieval village of Santa Creu de Rodes, among which the church of Santa Helena de Rodes stands out.
