The most important monastery in the Terres de Lleida, with centuries of religious life, is Vallbona de les Monges. Its origins go back to a Cistercian monastery that became the most important convent for women in the Catalan-Aragonese crown. It is located in a beautiful landscape in a valley on the slopes of the Serra del Tallat in the southern part of the county of Urgell and, together with the other large monasteries of Poblet and Santes Creus, it forms the Calan Cistercian Route.
