Historical milestone · Vilanova de la Barca, Segrià, Lleida

Image of Vilanova de la Barca, not of the place itself.

The town was left in the front line of the Segre front during the Civil War, between 1938 and 1939, and its Romanesque church of Santa Maria was practically pulled down. Only the chancel was preserved, later reused as a municipal store.

1936-1939
