We suppose the name of this place one diminutively contemptuously of "Apple orchard" or "Manzanares". It seems that the Town already existed in the epoch visigoda and it had to be still populated by Mozarabs up to the Christian reconquest. In 1200, Fernando III does donation to the gentleman Ferrand Yáñez of Alfarilla this place, renowned Manzanech of that time. Come up the century XV the Manzaneque dominion belonged to Iñigo of Collateral acceptances, which ordered to construct the castle. It would go on for heredity to the Alvarez of Toledo. In times of Fernán Alvarez of Toledo, of the council of the Kings Catholics, the city of Toledo supported in suit that Manzaneque and his jurisdiction they were proper of the city, being trumped in favor of it demands. Nevertheless proprietors continued the counts of Cedillo of fortitude and of rich grounds in the term. (Fte.-Texto Delegation to see link) |
