The Navarro-Aragonese king Alfonso the Battler founds a confraternity of knights in 1122 in Belchite to fight against the Almoravids; it is the start of the military orders in Aragon.

Years later, he will organize a branch of the Militia Christi of the Holy Land at Monreal del Campo.

Guy, Bishop of Lescar, is present for the foundation of the Confraternity of Belchite.
