Vilaller
Vilaller (pronounced Virallé in Ribagorza) is a town and municipality in the Alta Ribagorça region. It includes the decentralized municipal entity of Senet. Located in the north of the Alta Ribagorça region in general, it is the northwest corner of the part of the region of Catalan administration.
In addition to the town of Vilaller, the municipality includes the town of Senet de Barravés, as well as the old stable of Cierco, the last uninhabited: only Senet and Vilaller still maintain a population throughout the year. Formerly they had also belonged to Vilaller Casós, Sarroqueta de Barravés and Viuet.
The town of Casós and the Artiga farmhouse are enclaves of the Pont de Suert terminus (former Llesp terminus) within the Vilaller terminus.
In the proposal derived from the report popularly called the Roca Report, it was planned to integrate these two enclaves, as well as the towns of Sarroqueta and Viuet, in the municipality of Vilaller, segregating them from the Pont de Suert. Likewise, the municipality of Vilaller would be renamed Vilaller and Vall de Barravés.
The parish church of Vilaller is dedicated to Saint Clement, and, in addition, in the town and its surroundings there is also the sanctuary of the Mare de Déu de Riupedrós or Reperós, the hermitage of Sant Mamés, that of Sant Antoni, that of Sant Pere (of which only remains are preserved), the first chapel of the Seminari, dedicated to the Immaculate, and the second chapel of the same institution, dedicated to Saint Joseph. The parish of Vilaller belongs to the bishopric of Lleida, for having belonged, in the Middle Ages, to the bishopric of Roda de Ribagorça. Formed part of the pastoral unit 26 of the archpriesthood of Ribagorça, and is governed by the rector of El Pont de Suert.
The exact location of the Sant Andreu de Barravés Benedictine monastery, of paramount importance in the history of the entire valley, is still not known precisely.
