Discovering Argelès History of Argelès-Village The name of Argelès is derived from the French word “argile” because the town was built on a clayey soil. At the end of the 12th century, the town of Argelès and all the county were given to the Kings of Aragon and it will be under the control of the Kingdom of Aragon until 1276. Then Argelès belonged to the Kingdom of Majorca. In 1344, the ephemeral Kingdom of Majorca disappeared and the town and the whole ancient County of Roussillon returned to the Aragon kingdom. It was only in the 17th century that this beleaguered province of Roussillon became a French territory. Little by little Argelès was losing its strategic and military importance, and 18
the town fell asleep over its glorious past. It was reviving in the 20th century thanks to its exceptional geographical situation between the sea and the mountain, and now tourist industry is giving it a new life
