Peter, in preparation for the fall of …
Years: 1100 - 1100
Peter, in preparation for the fall of Barbastro, had in 1099 sent Pons, then Bishop of Roda, to Rome to ask Pope Urban to transfer the see of Roda to Barbastro.
The pope had complied and endowed the transferred diocese with all the re-conquered lands of the Diocese of Lleida.
Peter's motive in this action was probably to curtail any expansion of the Diocese of Urgell in the direction of Lleida.
In any case, Barbastro falls in 1100.
