Town hall

The name of this Town takes for being placed in a neckline, port or hill, and of the cult to the martyr S. Vicente.

In the summit of the port or hill that communicates the kingdom of Toledo with Ex-tremadura a chapel devoted to San Vicente was built in the Middle Ages, na - cido in Talavera of the Queen and martyred in Avila during the pursuit of Diocleciano. But already earlier, in the epoch visigoda, there was here one church possibly devoted to the above mentioned saint. Somewhere here there was spending it Roman roadway that was joining Emeritus August Toletum. The old way Roman used in the Middle Ages, especially when mo - nasterio of Santa Maria of Guadeloupe was acquiring prestige, come up century XVl. Possibly then the cult was vitalized to San Vicente, his chapel built in the century being restored Xlll. This complex integrated by the old cattle way, the military route, the chapel and the sale that was constructed close to her, would cause the population. (Fte.-Texto Delegation to see link)
