Subsequently, the Greek population from Marseille settled. Their traces by the passage of time are found in the excavations that have been made in the wall of Roses in which remains of minted coins were found.
The Romans developed pottery, livestock and wine production, so important today. In the middle ages the population settled on the mountain path of Puig Rom where they created the architecture of the Visigothic people.
After a few years, approximately in the sixteenth century the citadel of Roses and the Trinity Castle were built. Both fortresses were created to defend against pirates and invaders that came from the sea and the land.
