County of Ribagorza
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ribagorza is one of the historical Aragonese counties, which also comprised the counties of Sobrarbe and Pallars. Its territory was the valleys of the rivers Esera, Isabena, and Noguera Ribagorzana.
The historical capital was Benabarre. However, Barbastro has taken precedence as the main center of the area. Nowadays, it roughly corresponds to the comarcas of Baixa Ribagorça and Alta Ribagorça.
