  • En el camino de Toledo a Granada, y con posible origen en un pequeño castillo árabe localizado por algunos historiadores en lo que hoy es la ermita de San Juan, nació la villa de Almagro - ciudad desde 1796 - poco después de la batalla de Las Navas de Tolosa, que tuvo lugar en 1212, y le fue otorgado fuero por fray Gonzalo Yáñez de Noboa, IX maestre de la Orden de Calatrava, que confirmó en 1222 el rey Fernando III el Santo. Capital de los calatravos y de lo que después se ha dado en llamar Campo de Calatrava, alcanzó pronto tal pujanza que el rey Alfonso X el Sabio convocó Cortes en ella en 1273. (es)

Amalgro became an important centre for the Order of Calatrava and the area which became known as Campo de Calatrava. The medieval plaza mayor was redeveloped by the Fugger family, German bankers who under Charles V acquired considerable possessions in Spain and its empire. During the 16th and 17th centuries they had concessions on mines in La Mancha, including the important mercury mines of Almadén, in return for loans to the Spanish government. It was under their influence that the architecture of the square took on its present form with the distinctive galleries along two sides. * Panorama. (en)
