One of the best preserved antiques from Empuries are the Roman carpets created on the first century BC.
The first entrance of Roman Empire to Empuries was in 218 BC, when a Roman army entered in Empuries with the aim to stop the the Carthaginian advance.
The Roman city started in 195 BC, when Marc Porci Cató installed a military settlement.
Definitely you should spend a morning at least to visit these pieces of Catalan history, you won't be disappointed and it's great to learn a little history and to look round the old civilizations.
