The village, the only settlement in the municipality, is situated on a hill close to where the Montblanc-to-Tàrrega highway crosses the Corb river.

Its ruined castle occupies a commanding position overlooking not just the village but also the plains of Urgell and Segarra.

The municipality's economy depends largely on agriculture, mainly non-irrigated barley and other grains, vines, olives, and almonds, as well as pig- and poultry-farming.

[4] The municipality's population reached a peak of 872 in 1887, but has since steadily declined with the rest of the region to 209 in 2013.

[5] Many archaeological remains from the Iberic, Greek and Roman periods have been found in the municipality.
