Tàrrega, a town in Catalonia (Urgell), is sadly famous for the massacre of its Jewish community in 1348, one of the deadliest pogroms on the Iberian Peninsula in the context of the Black Death. Several hundred Jews perished; the medieval cemetery has been the subject of archaeological excavations that yielded bones bearing witness to the violence of the event.
