The University of Lleida has its roots in the Estudi General de Lleida created in 1300 by a charter to the city of Lleida from the king of Aragon James II on the basis of the papal bull issued in Rome on the 1st of April 1297, by Pope Boniface VIII.
Despite the good times that the University of Lleida went through until the first half of the 16th century, the situation of university studies would become more complicated with the growing competition of the new Universities that were being created in other territories of the Crown.
The new University of Cervera was situated there to thank the town of that name for its support for the cause of Phillip V, while Lleida and Barcelona opposed this from the start.
