History
Urbanya is mentioned for the first time on 16 June 1186, as being owned by the lord of Conat, on an act signed by Guillem-Bernard de Paracols, husband of Blanche de Conat.{{in lang|fr}} Jean Sagnes (dir.), Le pays catalan, t. 2, Pau, Société nouvelle d'éditions régionales, 1985
In September 1907, a rain and hailstorm falls on Urbanya, damaging and sometimes destroying the roads and bridges, as well with several houses.{{cite web |url=http://vieuxpapierspo.blogspot.fr/2014/08/deluge-urbanya-en-1907.html |title=Déluge à Urbanya en 1907 |last1=Cardenas |first1=Fabricio |date=9 August 2014 |website=Vieux papiers des Pyrénées-Orientales |access-date=28 February 2016 |language=fr}}
