- A little history about Cambrils
Cambrils remains one of the oldest agricultural and livestock Neolithic communities of the Iberian Peninsula that have been discovered. During the Iberian period, Cambrils was integrated into the territory of the íberos Cosetanos, but it was not until Roman times in the third century BC that we can say that Cambrils became populated.
Like the ancient Tarraco, the place that is now Cambrils suffered the same fate and, in the year 476, after the fall of the Roman Empire, Tarraco and all its territory was occupied by the Visigoths and King Eurico. It is not until 1184 that the Cambrils term is written, for the first time, in a letter that certifies delivery of the municipality to Berenguer de Cambrils, which is the origin of the name of this place.
