el Pont de Suert

Image of el Pont de Suert, not of the place itself.

The county was formed in 872, when Ramon II of Pallars-Ribagorça took advantage of Toulousan weakness to seize the territory. It had its capital and episcopal see at Roda d'Isàvena, and in 1018 it passed to Pamplona until it was integrated into the kingdom of Aragon in 1043.
