Rabòs is an extensive territory dedicated to oenology and livestock farming. In its municipality is the monastery of Sant Quirze de Colera, within the Albera Natural Site of National Interest.

The ancient territory has left as testimony to its ancient history a large number of megalithic monuments dating between the years 3300 to 2700 BC.

As occurs throughout the Alto Ampurdán region, in Rabós it is common to find dolmens, megalithic remains from other eras that have remained unpunished in the area over time. The municipal area, with more than 45 square kilometers, makes it one of the largest in the region, but it is only inhabited by 180 inhabitants.

Its terrain is rugged, especially due to its proximity to the Pyrenees. This has made it a rich land that allows all types of plantations to be grown. That is precisely why its inhabitants have dedicated themselves mainly to agriculture, highlighting vineyards above all. But a plague of phylloxera in 1860 wiped out many of them, causing their inhabitants to emigrate to other nearby municipalities in search of work opportunities.

That is why now the city council has had to adapt to the needs of travelers and in recent years a great effort has been made to attract the attention of those tourists who are looking for leisure options for a getaway to nature.

Other places of interest are the churches that are spread throughout the municipality. One of them is the Parish Church of San Julián, built in 1313, or that of Santa María de Colera, belonging to the 12th century.
