Aldover
Tarragona · Cataluña
Aldover (Catalan pronunciation: [aldoˈβe]) is a municipality in the comarca of Baix Ebre, in the province of Tarragona, in Catalonia, Spain. It has a population of 901 (register office, 2025) . There was a Renfe railway line from Tortosa to Alcañiz and Zaragoza that used to pass through this town until 1973. This line was dismantled as a result of a 1962 World Bank report advising the Spanish State to concentrate investment in the great lines and to abandon the less profitable railways connecting rural areas. Since the line was terminated, the rails were pulled off and the Aldover train station buildings lie abandoned.
History
El lugar estuvo poblado ya en tiempos de la ocupación musulmana. Se cree que el nombre proviene del término árabe aldowayra que significa "casita". En 1154 fue cedido a Tortosa por el conde Ramón Berenguer IV.
