Modern Pula appeared during the Middle Ages as a village called "Padulis de Nura" or Nora Marsh, which was part of the Giudicato of Cagliari. It was incorporated into the crown possessions of Aragon in 1355, after the death of Gherardo della Gherardesca the younger and was entrusted to various feudal lords. In the 18th century, there was a revival of agriculture, mainly due to agricultural reclamation promoted by religious groups, and then by the state. Agricultural reclamation intensified the development of olive and fruit growing.
