History & geography

History

On 5 March 1227, Ferdinand III donated the Estrella Castle to Pedro González, Grand Master of the Order of Santiago, so Montiel eventually became the head of the Campo de Montiel lands. In 1243, Montiel was granted a fuero (a copy of Cuenca's) and a number of privileges by Grand Master Paio Peres Correia. The Battle of Montiel occurred at the town. It was also the place where Peter of Castile was killed by Henry of Trastamara. Historically, Montiel was home to a Jewish community in the Middle Ages, up until the 1492 expulsion of the Jews.
