Lleida is one of the oldest towns in Catalonia, with recorded settlements dating back to the Bronze Age period. Until the Roman conquest of the Iberian Peninsula, the area served as a settlement for an Iberian people, ilergeta. The city became a municipality, called Ilerda, under the reign of Augustus. It was recaptured in 1149, after being many centuries under the rule of the Moors, who had conquered the city in the 8th century. In 1297 the University of Lleida was founded, becoming the third oldest in the whole of Spain. Over the following centuries the city was destroyed by wars. Since then the city has been in a constant urban, commercial and demographic growth.
