The 1259 flood and the reconstruction under Jaime I

Historical milestone · Pina de Ebro, Ribera Baja del Ebro, Zaragoza

Image of Pina de Ebro, not of the place itself.

A great flood of the Ebro razed Pina in 1259 and obliged Jaime I to promote the reconstruction of the villa. A century later, the Black Death of 1350 depopulated several places in the surrounding area and lastingly altered the settlement of the riverbank.
