Abstract

The article presents the rol performed by Archbishop Josep Pont i Gol as pastor of the Metropolitan See of Tarragona and his renovating thinking. It analyses the application of the new system of diocesan bodies, following the conciliar and post-conciliar dispositions and the impulse that he gave to the Catalan Episcopal Conference and Catalan culture and the collaboration with the Spanish Episcopal Conference. It shows the various stages of his government and the problems of the Church at the end of Franco’s dictatorship and at the beginning of the new democratic regime. His contribution to the concord of Catalonia and the Church stands out, with the return of the remains of Cardinal Vidal i Barraquer to the Cathedral of Tarragona in 1978.
