Its origins date from the 1 century after Christ. According to the legend, Christians coming from Rome were stranded in the bay and predicted this as a sign from god to found and erect a monastery in this place. The Christian doctrine at Sant P\u00e8re de Rodes ranks among the most significant within monasteries. The first official mention of the monastery originates from the year 878.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-19870\" src=\"https:\/\/cbrava.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/07\/santpererodes2.jpg\" alt=\"santpererodes2\" width=\"300\" height=\"217\"\/>The monastery geographically still dominates today the bay of Llan\u00e7\u00e0 and Port de la Selva. During a long period its power reached from Barcelona far into the Roussillon, now part of France. In the course of the twentieth century the monastery was restored under great expenses, some think in a rather too modern way.<\/p>\n<p>By car the monastery can be reached via Port de la Selva or Vilaju\u00efga. Numerous footpaths lead there as well, out of which the path from Vall de Santa Creu, although being slightly difficult, is especially recommendable.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-19875\" src=\"https:\/\/cbrava.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/07\/santpererodes3.jpg\" alt=\"santpererodes3\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\"\/>During the summer regularly guided tours take place. Information leaflets in all major languages are available at the ticket office. We recommend a visit on a very clear day in order to enjoy the grand view over the Empord\u00e0.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>St&nbsp;Pere de Rodes Monastery<\/u><\/strong><br \/>\n(17489) El Port de la Selva<br \/>\nPhone: +34 972 387 559<br \/>\nemail:&nbsp;<a href=\"mailto:reservesspv.acdpc@gencat.cat\">reservesspv.acdpc@gencat.cat<\/a><br \/>\nticket price: 3\u20ac<\/p>\n<p><strong>Visit hours<\/strong>:<br \/>\nFrom Tuesday to Sunday, bank holiday days included.<br \/>\nFrom October 1st to May 31st: from 10 to 17&#8217;30h.<br \/>\nFrom June 1st to September 30th: from 10&nbsp;to 20h.<br \/>\nClosed on Mondays (except bank holidays), December 25th &amp; 26th and January 1st &amp; 6th.<\/p>\n[cetsEmbedGmap src=http:\/\/maps.google.es\/maps?f=q&amp;source=s_q&amp;hl=es&amp;geocode=&amp;q=sant+pere+de+rodes&amp;sll=41.488006,3.14209&amp;sspn=1.950441,3.532104&amp;gl=es&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;hq=&amp;hnear=Sant+Pere+de+Rodes,+El+Port+de+la+Selva,+Gerona,+Catalu%C3%B1a&amp;ll=42.323016,3.165436&amp;spn=0.06016,0.110378&amp;t=p&amp;z=13 width=350 height=425 marginwidth=0 marginheight=0 frameborder=0 scrolling=no]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp;The monastery Sant Pere de Rodes is considered art-historically as prime example for the Catalan Roman era, if not as the actual cradle.
