HISTORY. THE CASTLE
The son of Queen Petronilla and Count Ramon Berenguer, Alfonso II the Chaste ruled from 1164 to 1196, becoming the first to unite the rule of Aragon and Barcelona under a single ruler. He thus became the first king of what would later be known as the Crown of Aragon. His reign was of great importance, including the founding of cities such as Teruel.
Why the nickname “the Chaste”? It seems that, unlike the monarchs before him, Alfonso had no mistresses and remained completely faithful to his wife, Sancha of Castile.
