The City – Lleida

The city of Lleida is located in Catalonia, an autonomous region in northern Spain, just a one-hour train ride away from the metropolis of Barcelona. Due to its strategic location, the city was long a stage of warfare since Roman times. Its history can be explored in the Museum of Lleida. With just under 140,000 inhabitants, the city is well laid out and built around the Rio Segre.

To dos in Lleida:

  • A visit to La Seu Vella Cathedral in the city center, which sits atop a hill.
  • The pedestrian bridge Passarel-la del Liceu Escolar offers a beautiful view of Lleida’s center with the cathedral.
  • In Parque de la Mitjana, a large water park on the outskirts of the city, you can hike, bike or climb.
