The nobleman and loyal to the crown real village of Durango it is a municipality of the historical territory of Biscay, Basque country (Spain), The called village Tabira of Durango and later on Villanueva of Durango and at the moment Durango, doesn't have Letter Puebla like the Basque other villages, but the historians usually locate the date of its foundation at the beginning of XIII century, with a confirmation of the jurisdiction in 1372 on the part of Infante don Juan. Although in the Chronicle of Ibargüen and of CachopÃn of the XVI century he/she says that Sancho III "noted the Wise one and otherwise, the Brave, gave jurisdictions to the village of Durango that predicts it is Biscay that then until the place of Navarrese of the town and anteiglesia of Hechano of the merindad of Cornoca his hera...", this king lived among 1150 and 1194.Tavira, or Tabira in Basque, it would be the name of the primitive nucleus and Durango that of the merindad. It is named this way in the confirmation of the jurisdiction in 1372 and it is known that until the XVI century it named her to him as Villanueva of Durango. In the shield the reference appears to "Tabira" in memory to the origin of this village. It photographs own. --txo December 2005 |
