Castle of Galliner

Monument · Isona i Conca Dellà, Pallars Jussà, Lleida

Romanesque castle documented since 1055, one of the most important in the county of Pallars between the 10th-12th centuries, which gave its name to the Galliner lineage -Guillem Folc de Galliner was a vassal of Count Bernat between 1080 and 1110-. Today barely any visible vestiges remain, though archaeological surveys have revealed remains of the old settlement. In 1365 it passed under the jurisdiction of the bishopric of Urgell, which held it until the 19th century; a protected archaeological zone since 1949.
