  Campo (Spanish:; Catalan:) is a town in the county of Ribagorza, in the province of Huesca, in Aragon, Spain. Situated in a valley between 2 rivers, the Esera and Rialbo, it is surrounded by snow-capped Pyrenean mountain peaks: most notably, the Turbón (2.492 m) and Cotiella (2.912 m).
  
  The town's municipal district includes the hamlet of Beleder, locally known as Belbedé, 2 km north of Campo.
  
  Due to the landlock created by the mountains, the locals continue to speak the centuries-old Patues (Patois), colloquially known as "Fabla", a Ribagorçan dialect derived from Vulgar Latin, Navarro-Aragonese, southern Gascon, and Castillian.
  
  It is also the birthplace of Gaspar Torrente (1888–1970), an early 20th Century promoter of Aragonese identity and nationalism and a founding father and leader of the Aragonese Nationalist party, 'Estado Aragonés'.
