History
The numerous remains of Cisastur fortifications (castros) found along the city's surroundings prove the man has inhabited these lands from ancient times. However, the origin of the current settlements goes back to the repopulations made in the Middle Ages during the centuries ninth through eleventh, linked to the Church and the edification of several monasteries in the region.
Language
As in the rest of the community of Castilla y León, Spanish is the most widely spoken language and the language of instruction in schools.
