Hortoneda, also called Hortoneda de la Conca, like the old municipality, is a town of the old term of that name, of the current Conca de Dalt, in Pallars Jussà. Together with Herba-savina, Mas de Vilanova or Vilanoveta and Pessonada formed this area of Hortoneda de la Conca. The town of Hortoneda was born near the castle of Hortoneda, of which it must have been a castle town. In the south-east of the town, a second nucleus was formed over time, born as a suburb of Hortoneda, called Segalars. It is located perched on top of a hill at almost 1,000 meters of altitude, in a preeminent place, with remarkable views over the Serra del Boumort, the Noguera Pallaresa valley and the whole of the Conca de Dalt sub-region. Of course, also on most of the municipality also called Conca de Dalt, to which it belongs. The parish church is dedicated to Santa Maria. It was a notable example of the Romanesque style for its octagonal bell tower above the nave of the church, but it was demolished towards the middle of the 20th century due to the imminent fall that its precarious state predicted. A small town throughout its history, in 1970 it had 93 inhabitants, 51 in 1981, and 32 in 2006. It has since experienced a certain recovery, and in 2007 there were already 44. Hortoneda belonged to the Romanesque church of Sant Cristòfol de Montpedrós, located about 5 kilometers to the east of the town, the old square of Llania and the scattered hamlet of Segan, at the head of the Llabro stream.

The Coma d'Orient is a coma and a rural part of the municipality of Conca de Dalt, in lands of the old municipality of Hortoneda de la Conca, in the Pallars Jussà. It is located at the north-eastern end of the term, at the foot of the Serra de Boumort (north-west). It is a wide coma formed by the ravine of the Coma d'Orient, which later transforms into the ravine of Hell. In the center of the coma there is a grouping of bordes, some old farmhouses, known as Masos de la Coma. They belong to Hortoneda families. The most western is Borda d'Aubarell; then there was that of the Musician, missing; then came the grouping of banks in the central area of the coma, the Clot de la Ginebrosa: the Borda de Senllí, the Borda de Maladent, the Borda del Gorret and the Borda d'Isabel, the first two with a second construction that is a beating; further east is the Pletiu del Querolar, where there was the board of that name, and even further east there had been the Borda de Savoia. Like most bordes, they host a stable seasonal population, from spring to fall. (Source Wikiloc)

Located in the center of the town and under the imposing Roca de Pessonada, in the Comarca del Pallars Jussà, we find the Church of Santa Maria. As a curiosity, his Romanesque paintings are preserved, today, in the Museum of Fine Arts of Bilbao. Date of 1982
