Image of La Zarza, not of the place itself.

During the reign of Juan II of Castile (1406-1454) the Master of the Order of Santiago granted properties in La Zarza to Martín Alfonso de León; the king's own chronicle would mention the place again when recounting how the King of Navarre occupied it with seventeen hundred horsemen.
