This tourist town on the Costa Daurada was, in the Middle Ages, an important harbour. In fact, the fleet of king Jaume I departed from here to the conquest of Majorca in 1229: this historical episode is represented by the ship with the sail depicted with the royal arms of Catalonia-Aragon (four pales Gules on Or). The tower above is the Torre Vella (or Old Tower), built in 1530 to watch out and prevent the attacks of pirates and corsairs.
