Godall (Catalan pronunciation: [goˈðaʎ]) is a municipality in the Montsià comarca, Tarragona Province, Catalonia, Spain. Godall gives its name to the Serra de Godall, a moderately high and smooth calcareous mountain range that rises above the town. Local legend says that the village originated when people built a new settlement after abandoning the destroyed village of Merades, located within Godall's municipal term.[4]
