Lleida. Lleida (cat. Lleida, sp. Lérida) is a city in Spain, western Catalonia, the capital of the Segrià region (cat. comarca) and the Ponet vegueria, head of the judicial district and the seat of the Diocese of Lleida. Its extensive municipal district, the largest and most populated in the comarca, is formed by the city, the decentralized municipal entities of Raimat and Juices and 56 partides (sections of rural terrain around the city). The partides closest to the city make up the Horta de Lleida. The city houses historical monuments such as the Seu Vella, or the Conjunt Monumental of Gardeny, which are visited every year by hundreds of thousands of tourists. The main motor of Lleida’s economy is the service sector (77.1% of the GVA of 2001), followed by construction (10.6%), industry (10.1%) and agriculture (2.1%). The city is formed around a hill located on the banks of the River Segre. Lleida has long been a city where communications networks come together.
