Monastery of Sant Pere de Galligants
It is a benedictine monastery, which dates from the 11-12the centuries. Nowadays, it is housing the Archeological Museum. The most important monumental merit of the temple and the remarkable iconographic interest of the cloister make the complex one of the most noteworthy examples of Catalonian Romanesque architecture. The aspe and the belfry are integrated within the walled enclosure of the city which is still partly preserved. The museum contains an important collection of prehistoric objects together with others from Greek and Roman periods, as well as a unique collection of Hebrew tombstones.
