  • Hola Companys, Quan Fem Una Cerca Al Fons Parroquial De L'arxiu
    Hola companys, Quan fem una cerca al Fons Parroquial de l'Arxiu Històric Arxidiocesà de Tarragona (AHAT) ens podem trobar que els llibres sacramentals de la població on necessitem fer la recerca no arriben gaire lluny o sols arriben fins a una època determinada, la qual cosa pot fer aturar de sobte les nostres investigacions en algunes poblacions. Hi ha vegades, però, que per ser la parròquia de la població sufragània d'una altra, o que per una distribució més antiga pertanyia o podia estar inclosa dins d'una administració eclesiàstica major, podem trobar una continuïtat o part dels llibres sacramentals inclosos en una altra parròquia.

    EL LLOAR Priorat Memòria i normativa específica NORMES DE PLANEJAMENT URBANÍSTIC. MUNICIPIS DEL CAMP DE TARRAGONA Aprovació provisional Desembre 2014 Normes de planejament urbanístic. Municipis del Camp de Tarragona El Lloar PRIORAT _INFORMACIÓ Territori Situat a la dreta del riu Montsant, el terme municipal del Lloar es troba a la zona de ponent de la comarca del Priorat, limitant pel nord amb la Vilella Baixa, amb Gratallops a l'est, el Molar al sud i la Figuera a l'oest. El terme s'estén fins poc abans de la unió del Montsant al riu Siurana, al peu dels singles del tossal del Guixar, amb una superfície de 7 km2. Es troba en un territori accidentat amb estribacions muntanyoses que arriben a quasi 500m. El territori el drenen diversos barrancs afluents al riu de Montsant com el de Tren, de les Ortigues o del Merla. La principal via de comunicació dins el terme és la carretera T-712 que porta fins a Gratallops al nord-est i al Molar al sud-oest. A Gratallops es connecta amb la T-710 que porta a Falset on comunica amb la N-420 de Tarragona a Gandesa. Aquest municipi compta amb un sol nucli, el poble del Lloar (219 m d’altitud) emplaçat damunt un tossal, a la dreta del riu de Montsant, en un extrem del terme. L’edifici més notable és l’església parroquial d’estil neoclàssic de Sant Miquel (1777-79), amb tres naus, cor, cimbori i campanar. A uns 2 km del poble, es localitzen les coves de Rogerals, conjunt de diverses balmes i petites coves de gres que denoten la presència d’un poblament prehistòric considerable.
