A town in the same-named county of Lleida province in the Catalonia region in northeastern Spain. Population: about 7,000. It is located on a fertile plateau (691m above sea level) at the foot of the Pyrenees, irrigated by a 144km long canal. It became a county in the 8th century, and joined the Kingdom of Aragon in 1162, but in the 15th century, Count Jaime rebelled for the throne but failed (he died in prison in 1433). As a result, the county was abolished and has remained so to this day. During the Visigothic Kingdom, it was also the seat of a bishopric, and the Bishop of Urgel has held sovereignty over Andorra since 819.
