One believes that The Zaida was founded in the VIth century before Christ for the finds of Iberian ceramics campanéense found to very little depth.

The city center is in the right margin of the river Ebro and in he emphasizes, between other constructions, the parochial San church José. It is a construction that has suffered many reforms in the century XX, because it was threatening ruin; the tower, for example it fell down and he constructed again completely. One finds them along with a noble house, belonging one of the most important families of Aragon, Ximénez Cerdán. Stately house considers the temple to be the ancient church of this one .
