Romanyà d'Empordà: History, Museums and Regional Destinations

History

In Romanyà d'Empordà, the Can Faras heritage collection covers the period from 1220 to 1649. The Alt Empordà Regional Archive began cataloguing approximately 350 parchments from Can Faras; they date from the early 14th to the 17th century. The documented history of Can Faras therefore spans several centuries and combines a long chronological period with specific written records. The figure of approximately 350 parchments retains the approximate nature of the number.

Mas Castell (Can Rutllet) is a 17th-century farmhouse in Romanyà d'Empordà. It preserves some 10th-century fortification elements that originate from a small fortress. This building therefore brings together two historical periods: the 17th-century farmhouse and the older elements attributed to a small fortress. Can Terrats is a farmhouse in Romanyà d'Empordà for which evidence dating from 1300 exists. This individual date adds another historical reference point to the chronological classification of the local farmhouses.
