Salvatierra de Escá
Village
Salvatierra de Esca is a municipality in the province of Zaragoza, in Aragon, the northernmost in the province and the westernmost in the comarca of La Jacetania, although more closely linked to Jaca than to Ejea de los Caballeros. It has 187 inhabitants (INE 2025) and includes the settlement of Lorbés. It sits at 586 metres of altitude on the final stretch of the Esca river, which flows into the Aragón near the tail of the Yesa reservoir, and marks the outlet of the Navarrese Valle de Roncal, from which it is separated by the Foz de Burgui. Until the naming reform of 1916 the municipality was simply called Salvatierra, when it adopted its current name. Its church of El Salvador preserves one of the oldest organs in the Pyrenees, dating from 1618, recently restored.
