Informations supplémentaires

The Order of Malta or St. John is a Catholic religious order founded in Jerusalem in the eleventh century by merchants of Amalfi. He was born in the Crusades and from the beginning, with her hospital activity, developed military action against Arab Muslim armies, and later Turks. In the second half of the twelfth century are already some glimmers of militarization of the Order. In 1162 Alfonso VIII in La Mancha gives a number of enclaves, Criptana, Villajos, and in 1183, the same monarch given to the Order the castle and town of Consuegra which would become the new home of Prior. Witnesses to the establishment of the Order in La Mancha are the cities that added to its place name "San Juan".
