The Dolmen del Cap de l’Home dates back to 3000-3500 B.C. in the late Neolithic age. The dolmen is built from gneiss plates in a trapezoidal shape. It has become a local point of interest in Roses in the 1980s after being uncovered during an archaeological dig.

You don’t need to go on a hiking trip to see the dolmen, as it is located just 50 meters away from the street Pitágoras on the outskirts of Roses. There is a convenient parking lot nearby.

The dolmen Creu d’en Cobertella is the largest dolmen in Catalonia, dating back to 3000-3500 B.C. Discovered in 1975, it was hidden inside a round stone mound, typical for burial grounds of the late Stone Age. During the excavations, the archeologists also discovered human remains, ceramic pieces, and the Roman coin onsite.

The dolmen is formed by large gneiss plates. Two chambers that are present in the structure had most likely also had a stone hallway leading up to them, but it hasn’t survived to the modern day.

The dolmen Llit de la Generala is found 150 meters away from the dolmen Cap Home, so these two archaeological sites may be visited at once.

The dolmen dates back to 3000-3500 B.C. It consists of a semicircular chamber formed by gneiss plates and a narrow stone hallway.

The dolmen of Doctor Pericot (Dolmen del Dr. Pericot) was discovered in 1975 and named after a renowned Catalan archeologist, Luis Pericot. Scientists date this megalith to the 3000-2500 B.C.
