Almatret

Almatret is a municipality located in the comarca of La Llitera, in the province of Huesca, Aragon, Spain. It is situated in the eastern part of Aragon, near the border with Catalonia. The municipality's economy is primarily based on agriculture, with cereals, olive groves, and almond trees being the main crops. Livestock farming also plays a role in the local economy.

The village of Almatret itself is small, with a historic center characterized by narrow streets and traditional stone houses. The Church of San Salvador, a 16th-century building with later additions, is a notable landmark. The surrounding landscape is typical of the Llitera region, with rolling hills and a dry climate.

The area around Almatret has evidence of ancient human settlement, though significant archaeological findings are limited. The history of Almatret is closely tied to the broader history of Aragon, experiencing periods of Moorish rule before its reconquest and incorporation into Christian kingdoms. Like many rural communities in Spain, Almatret has faced depopulation in recent decades, although efforts are being made to revitalize the area and preserve its cultural heritage. The local fiestas are celebrated in August, honoring the patron saint.
