Historical milestone · la Seu d'Urgell, Alt Urgell, Lleida

Image of la Seu d'Urgell, not of the place itself.

The city and the fortress that dominates it were a key piece of the Pyrenees during the Carlist wars of the nineteenth century. The stronghold held out until its surrender in 1875, at the end of the Third Carlist War, closing more than forty years of intermittent conflict.
