Albatàrrec

The municipality of Albatàrrego is made up of three well-differentiated natural units: the alluvial area near the Segre, with quaternary terraces, a sector to the east of the Urgellian plain and to the southeast, a series of garrigue platforms, with the 229-meter Pedrós hill of altitude.

The town has been growing in a spiral from the building known as the castle. This is, without a doubt, the most emblematic building. Albatarrec has traditionally been an eminently agricultural town with little industrial activity, but very well located and communicated, which has favored the growth of the population.

The repopulation of Albatarrec (no population chart is conserved) was contemporary in those of Vilanova de Fontanet (today La Bordeta), Albarés (also in the Lleida district) and Pedrós (depopulated in the eastern sector of the Albatarrec district) and later to 1168.
