Description

The Liber Iudiciorum, preserved in the Diocesan and Capitular Archives of Urgell, is a compilation of Visigothic law that remained in force for centuries in Catalonia. Its presence in early medieval codices demonstrates the survival of legal traditions prior to the Frankish domination. Unique for its influence on the formation of Catalan law, this document is key to understanding legal continuity and the construction of its own legal identity within the European framework.
