The settlement charter of Benicarló

Historical milestone · Benicarló, El Baix Maestrat, Castellón

Image of Benicarló, not of the place itself.

James I granted in 1236 a settlement charter to the place, heir to the Andalusi farmstead of Beni-Gazlum; for centuries it depended on Peníscola and did not achieve full municipal autonomy until the Early Modern period.
