A bit of History About this ORDER.

The Order of Santa María de Montesa and San Jorge de Alfama is a religious and military order founded by King Jaime II of Aragon in the 14th century


Guillermo de Eril, an old man, great expert in the military arts, was appointed as the first Master of the new Order. The charge lasted very little, since Eril died seventy days after being elected.

However, the kings were already beginning to take an active part in the election of the masters. King Ferdinand II of Aragon (Ferdinand the Catholic) imposed as such his nephew, Philip of Aragon and Navarre, thus revoking the previous appointment.
