Pau's past goes back many years ago and shows the megalithic monuments are found in his term, in the Sierra de Rodes. Notably Burnau dolmen located in the middle of a residential community. There are five major proportions slabs and two in the cover. There is also the neck Margalla forest nailed retaining new slabs and onto the deck.
