The Tallat sanctuary appears in records as early as the 11th century, where a defense tower was located that took advantage of the magnificent views over the l'Urgell, Sagarra and Conca de Barberà regions. In the middle of the 14th century, a church was established as a result of the popular initiative of the residents of Rocallaura, and in 1475 it is said that a wooden carving of a Virgin Mary appeared to a shepherd. Legend has it that despite repeated attempts to move the carving, it returned to the place where the sanctuary is now, so they decided to leave it here. Then began a period of splendor for the sanctuary, with numerous reforms during the 15th and 16th centuries, some promoted by Fernando el Católico himself, who is said to have spent the night with Queen Isabella la Católica in 1493. By order of the king, it became in the priory of nearby Poblet, and a group of monks from the Cistercian order settled there. With the confiscation of Mendizabal in the first half of the 19th century, the monks abandoned the priory, and after the subsequent looting and destruction of the enclosure, the sanctuary remained abandoned until 1970 when a private association acquired the remains and took charge of their restoration and custody.
