“Anfiteatro Blanco del Cap de Creus y Tradición Marinera del Llaüt”
### La Historia Marítima Aislado de la llanura del Empordà durante siglos por la sierra del Pení, Cadaqués se desarrolló como una comunidad volcada al mar. Tras el saqueo otomano de Barbarroja en 1543, sus marineros reconstruyeron la villa como un anfiteatro encalado dedicado a la pesca del coral, la salazón de la anchoa y el comercio marítimo con Barcelona, Marsella, Génova y la Cuba decimonónica. ### Arquitectura y Frente Marítimo El núcleo antiguo está protegido como Conjunt històric de Cadaqués (IPAC 10935 / BCIN 1939-CH-EN / BIC RI-53-0000485). En su cima se alza la iglesia parroquial de Santa Maria de Cadaqués (IPAC 17945), que custodia el monumental retablo barroco en madera dorada de 23 metros (1723–1788), obra de los escultores Pau Costa y Jacint Morató culminada con Joan Torras y sufragada por el gremio de pescadores. Sus callejuelas pavimentadas en es rastell descienden hacia el baluarte costero de la Torre des Baluard (IPAC 648 / BCIN 568-MH), mientras que en la cala vecina se conserva la Casa Salvador Dalí de Portlligat (IPAC 11811 / BCIN 1949-MH-EN) y en los cabos los faros de Cap de Creus (IPAC 17955) y Cala Nans (IPAC 17956).

“Ciudadela Real de Mallorca y Puerto Catalán de la Côte Vermeille”
### La Historia Marítima Custodiado por los bastiones de esquisto del Castillo Real, el puerto de Collioure ocupa una ensenada natural donde la sierra de la Albera se sumerge en el Mediterráneo. Documentado en la antigüedad como Caucoliberis, entre 1276 y 1344 floreció como el principal puerto continental del Reino de Mallorca. Tras el Tratado de los Pirineos (1659), Vauban transformó el recinto medieval en una ciudadela fronteriza a partir de 1679. ### Arquitectura y Frente Marítimo El frente marítimo reúne tres monumentos históricos oficiales: el Castillo Real de Collioure (Base Mérimée PA00103998, clasificado el 14 de noviembre de 1922), la Iglesia de Notre-Dame-des-Anges (Base Mérimée PA00104000, clasificada el 3 de enero de 1923) adosada a la antigua torre-fanal medieval del puerto, y el renacentista Fort Saint-Elme (Base Mérimée PA00104003, inscrito el 2 de abril de 1927), erigido entre 1538 y 1552 bajo Carlos V.
