Dotila d'Urgell

Dotila d'Urgell, (? - la Seu d'Urgell, 781) was a Bishop of the Roman Catholic Church who held the title of bishop of Urgell, between the years 765 and 781.

Very little is known of his life though the chronicles tell us he was a leader in the towns resistance to the Muslim conquest of Spain.[1][2]

He died when the Moors took the city of Urgell.[3]
