L'origen de la senyoria episcopal de la Seu d'Urgell

The lordship of the Bishops of Urgell over the town of La Seu dates from the time of the donations made by Count Ramon Borrell of Barcelona, tutor of the young Count Ermengol II of Urgell, to the holy bishop Ermengol after his election around the year 1010. Two years later the Pope Benedict VIII recognized this lordship.
