Fraga (Script error: No such module "IPA".; Script error: No such module "IPA".) is the main town of the comarca of Bajo Cinca (Template:Langx) in the province of Huesca, Aragon, Spain. It is located by the river Cinca. According to the 2014 census,[1] the municipality has a population of 14,926.
King Alfonso I of Aragon died at its walls in 1134 while trying to capture it during the Battle of Fraga. It was eventually taken from the Moors by the Count Ramon Berenguer IV of Barcelona in 1149.
The local language, called Fragatí, is western Catalan.
Historically, there was a Jewish community in Fraga. Jews in Fraga enjoyed civil rights under Muslim rule, which was not always the case in other historical Spanish Jewish communities. They were given autonomy, including the right to defend themselves against attacks and the right to elect their representatives. The community ceased to exist due to the expulsion of the Muslims and Jews in 1492.[2]
