1478 CE

Construction begins in 1478 on the Franciscan friary of San Juan de los Reyes in Toledo, founded by King Ferdinand II of Aragon and Queen Isabella I of Castile to commemorate both the birth of their son John and their victory at the Battle of Toro 1476 over the army of Afonso V of Portugal.

John’s birth, on June 30, 1478, in Seville, opens new possibilities for the dynastic stability of the Isabellian side.
