Diego López de Medrano y Hurtado de Mendoza (XIV century – 15th century) was a noble from the House of Medrano in La Rioja during the successive reigns of John I of Castile, Henry III of Castile and John II of Castile. Diego was a royal ambassador, lawyer and Lord of Agoncillo, Velilla and San Martín de Berberana in the Kingdom of Castile and León.
He is not to be confused with his nephew, Don Diego López de Medrano y Zúñiga, Lord of Fuenmayor and Almarza de Cameros, son of his brother Don Juan Martínez de Medrano y Hurtado de Mendoza.[1][2]
Family background
[edit]Diego was born into a ricohombre and political family of noble lineage. On his paternal side, Diego belongs to the ancient and noble House of Medrano, and on his maternal side, the influential House of Hurtado de Mendoza. The House of Medrano was one of the most powerful in the Sierra de Cameros, La Rioja and in Soria.[3] Their livestock grazed in those lands, and hundreds of times they walked to the pastures of Extremadura or the royal valley of Alcudia, in La Mancha.[3][4] The municipality and town of Medrano in La Rioja, one of the seven villas del campo, dates back to the early 11th century and uses the coat of arms of the Medrano family.
His brother Juan Martínez de Medrano y Hurtado de Mendoza, lord of Fuenmayor and Almarza de Cameros, is in the will and testament of King John I of Castile and León, where he orders Don Juan Martínez de Medrano to have the knife of King Henry III of Castile.[5] His brother Juan Martinez de Medrano died at the battle of Aljubarrota in 1385.[5] Another Don Juan Martínez de Medrano died in the battle of Santarém on July 17, 1393. He was part of the retinue of King John I of Castile.[6]

In 1372, Prince John of Gaunt, Duke of Lancaster formed a small Castilian chancery and claimed the title "King of Castile and León," styling himself as Peter of Castile. In 1386, Prince John of Gaunt, Duke of Lancaster sent a herald to King Don John I of Castile, informing him that he had arrived in Galicia with his wife, Queen Doña Constance of Castile, daughter of King Don Peter of Castile. The Duke asserted his entitlement to the kingdoms of Castile and León through his marriage and declared that if King Don John I of Castile challenged this claim, the dispute would be resolved through battle.[9]
In 1386, King John I of Castile sent lord Don Diego López de Medrano, prior Juan de Serrano, and doctor Alvar Martínez with his reply to Prince John of Gaunt, Duke of Lancaster, when the latter arrived in Galicia and sent the king a message claiming the crown of Castile for his wife and himself.[10][11] Upon meeting the Duke, they were received with honor and were granted an audience. Diego López de Medrano and the other two ambassadors chose a public hearing in the presence of his council.[9]
Diego López de Medrano, Ambassador to Prince John of Gaunt
[edit]A few days later, with all the principal lords and captains who had accompanied him from England in attendance, the Duke called upon the ambassadors of the King of Castile and instructed them to deliver any messages or requests they had been sent to present on their lord's behalf.[9] In front of the Duke and his council, Diego López de Medrano said:
"Lord, may it please you that the Doctor and I have come here with the Prior of Guadalupe by command of the King of Castile, our lord, to convey the reasons we have been instructed to present. Afterward, if it pleases you, you may respond to everything. Lord, the King of Castile, my lord, says that you sent him a herald stating that you have greater rights to the Kingdom of Castile than he does, and if he disagrees, you would challenge him to battle, power against power. To this, the King my lord says that he has the right to the Kingdom of Castile, and if you decide otherwise, he will fight you personally, or with ten against ten, or a hundred against a hundred, for the service of God and to avoid the spilling of Christian blood, as he does not wish to engage in a power struggle against you."[9]
Prince John of Gaunt, Duke of Lancaster acknowledged the ambassadors messages and told Medrano he would consult his council and reply to them afterwards, and invited Diego López de Medrano and the other two ambassadors to dine with him with full honors. The result of Medrano's diplomatic visit concluded with a secret treaty with King John of Trastámara under which John of Gaunt and his wife renounced all claim to the Castilian throne in return for a large annual payment and the marriage of their daughter Catherine of Lancaster to John of Trastámara's son, Henry III of Castile.[9][12]
Lordship of Agoncillo
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/d7/Escudo_de_Agoncillo-La_Rioja.svg/220px-Escudo_de_Agoncillo-La_Rioja.svg.png)
The Lordship of Agoncillo is strategically located near the Ebro River, which historically marked the boundary between Castile and Navarre, making Agoncillo a crucial frontier defense. It sits close to where the Jubera and Leza rivers converge, with the Leza River flowing into the Ebro nearby. This positioning allowed the Lords of Agoncillo to control the passage of these rivers and oversee the important road running through the area. The current town is believed to occupy the site of the ancient and now ruined settlement of Egón, from which it derives its modern diminutive name. Historically, Agoncillo has appeared under various names, including Agonciello, Egonciello, Agusiello, and Sagonciello.[13]
Saint Francis of Assisi in Agoncillo

The Medrano family are generational patrons of the Franciscan Order.[14] In approximately 1211, a captain of the Medrano family held the lordship of the castle and town of Agoncillo, situated near the city of Logroño, in the region of La Rioja. Medrano's son was suffering from a mysterious and untreatable ailment. In 1211, Saint Francis of Assisi roamed those very paths of Agoncillo. In a saintly manner, he visited Medrano's Agoncillo castle, placed his mystical hands upon the ailing Medrano boy, and miraculously healed him, securing the Medrano lineage in Agoncillo.[14] As a result, the Medrano family are distinguished by their devotion to Saint Francis of Assisi and their generational patronage of the Franciscan order.[15] The Medrano family generously donated some land, including a tower, situated close to the Ebro River within the city of Logroño as a gift to Saint Francis, establishing the first Spanish convent of his Order there.[16] Unfortunately, despite its centuries-long legacy of glory and sanctity, the convent met its demise in the 19th century due to the advent of liberalism and its accompanying laws. Today, the remnants of its walls still remain.[14]
Background
[edit]The province of La Rioja was reclaimed by the King of Castile in the 14th century. During the royal court's stay near the town, Alfonso XI of Castile bestowed Agoncillo, its fortress, and the castle between Arrúbal and Arroyuelo, along with their lands, rents, and judicial rights, upon his vassal and crossbowman Sancho Sánchez de Rojas and his wife Urraca Díaz on September 1, 1336.[13]
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/6f/Castle_of_Aguas_Mansas_in_La_Rioja.jpg/220px-Castle_of_Aguas_Mansas_in_La_Rioja.jpg)
In 1337, Diego's uncle Don Rodrigo Alfonso de Medrano bought the village of Velilla and Agoncillo, along with the castle of Aguas Mansas from Sancho Sánchez de Rojas and his wife Urraca Díaz. The king confirmed Rodrigo Alfonso de Medrano, his chief crossbowman, in the purchase of the town of Agoncillo and Velilla from Sancho Sánchez de Rojas, by Royal Decree, and granted him additional privileges, including requests and aid from eight town taxpayers. In his will made in 1345, Diego's uncle Rodrigo Alfonso de Medrano ordered his burial in the chapel of Santa Engracia, which he had constructed behind Santa María de Palacio in Logroño. He also established a majorazgo with Agoncillo and Velilla, which was later nullified due to procedural deficiencies.[13]
Rodrigo Alfonso de Medrano completed and renovated the castle and village of Agoncillo. According to his will and testament, Don Rodrigo Diaz de Medrano spent:
"large sums of money rebuilding the village and the castle and constructing the palace of Velilla (Old Castillian: Grandes sumas de dinero reconstruyendo el pueblo y el castillo y construyendo el palacio de Velilla)."[13]
During the conflicts between Peter of Castile and Henry II of Castile, the Lords of Agoncillo in La Rioja from the House of Medrano were loyal to the Royal House of Trastámara. Henry intervened in Castile and sought refuge in Rioja, while Charles II of Navarre took advantage of Peter I's weakening power to briefly seize Logroño and its territory.[13]
Return of Agoncillo to the House of Medrano
[edit]To repay the inhabitants of Viana for provisions taken while the royal court was stationed in front of Logroño, Charles II of Navarre ordered the sale of Agoncillo, its castle, and the village of Velilla, which had been recently regained, for three thousand florins, an agreement made in Pamplona on 15 September 1368. However, following Henry II's victory in the province of La Rioja, the borders were restored to their original configuration, and the town of Agoncillo, along with its castle, was reclaimed by its rightful owner, Don Alvar Diaz de Medrano, in 1392.[13]
Forming a Mayorazgo
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/eb/Velilla_de_Cameros.jpg/220px-Velilla_de_Cameros.jpg)
Before acquiring Agoncillo from his uncle, Diego López de Medrano purchased various properties from the descendants of Juan Rodríguez de Agoncillo (or Valdefuentes). In 1389, Diego López de Medrano acquired Velilla, La Rioja for 13,000 maravedís.[13] The following year, in 1390, he bought half of San Martín de Berberana (or Barberana), including palaces, houses, casares, woods, and lordship, from Sancho Sánchez de Medrano for 5,000 maravedís. In 1391, he purchased the other half from Sancho for 320 Aragonese florins.[13]
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/2d/01-AGONCILLO-2005.jpg/220px-01-AGONCILLO-2005.jpg)
On January 16, 1392, Diego López de Medrano received the Lordship of Agoncillo, near Logroño, from his paternal uncle Don Rodrigo Alfonso de Medrano.[17][18] This acquisition included its stronghold, lands, vineyards, mills, and all associated rights and lordship, in exchange for the castle of Cueva Eslañana (Islallana), valued at forty thousand maravedís, because Agoncillo was valued higher. Full possession of Agoncillo was not achieved until 1401, when Diego López de Medrano completed the outstanding requirements needed for its complete acquisition.[13]
Establishing the Mayorazgo of Agoncillo and Velilla
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/74/Extramiana.jpg/220px-Extramiana.jpg)
Diego López de Medrano obtained royal permission from King John II of Castile to establish a majorazgo in 1407 with all the assets he obtained in favor of his son Don Juan de Medrano. Diego was succeeded by his son Juan. However, upon Juan's death without heirs, the majorazgo passed to Diego's daughter Aldonza Diaz de Medrano.[13]
Collateral of Dona Aldonza Diaz de Medrano
[edit]His daughter Dona Aldonza Diaz de Medrano inherited the Mayorazgo of Agoncillo, along with its stronghold, lands, vineyards, mills, and all associated rights and lordship. An 18th-century lawsuit revealed the concealment of wills to hide this irregular succession by the Frías family.[13]
Dona Aldonza Diaz de Medrano was married to the powerful Lope García de Porras. Lope García de Porras, owning a vast estate in Burgos, bequeathed the majorazgo of Extramiana to his son, Pedro Gómez de Porras y Medrano, in 1429. This estate included Cidad de Porras with its stronghold, Virtus in Burgos, Spain with its castle, and Extramiana in Castile and León. These assets, mostly in the Tobalina valley, formed a single majorazgo with Agoncillo.[13]
Pedro's successor Pedro Gómez de Porras married Diego López de Salcedo y Medrano's daughter, but they died without descendants, leading to a lawsuit in Valladolid. In 1477, a ruling favored Pedro's son Lope against Diego's descendants. Pedro Gómez de Porras y Medrano, considering himself the legitimate successor, fulfilled tasks from his grandfather's will, including specific instructions for his burial in the Monastery of San Francisco in Logroño, with alabaster tombs and the placement of two Medrano family shields on the wall in the castle of Aguas Mansas.[13]
In 1489, Lope rented out Agoncillo lands to residents for substantial payments. When Lope died in 1501, his grandson Francisco succeeded him, opposing a new majorazgo for Rui Díaz de Porras. A legal ruling declared all Extramiana majorazgo assets belonged to the Agoncillo majorazgo under the House of Porras y Medrano.[13]
Counts of Siruela
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/ed/Escudo_de_Siruela_%28Badajoz%29.svg/100px-Escudo_de_Siruela_%28Badajoz%29.svg.png)
By the end of the 16th century, the last direct male descendant of the Porres y Medrano line died. Doña Ana Maria de Porres y Medrano, Lady of Agoncillo, married Don Cristóbal de Velasco y Zúñiga (died 1623), VI Count of Siruela, and from that moment on, Agoncillo became part of the County of Siruela, while Extramiana was reserved for a collateral male branch and later reintegrated into the majorazgo of Cidad de Valdeporras.[13]
In 1689, a lengthy lawsuit began between Lope de Frías Salazar and the last daughter of the Counts of Siruela, a nun at Santa Clara de Medina de Pomar. By 1695, a judgment favored the nun, requiring Lope to return all assets and pay 135,924 reales. The nun died the same year, leading to a new lawsuit between Lope, the monastery, and others. Despite losing the succession case over Extramiana, Lope retained possession of Agoncillo, which remained in the Frías Salazar family until the abolition of the majorazgos in the early 19th century.[13]
Marriage and Children

Aldonza married Lope Garcia de Porres and had one son, Pedro Gomez de Porres y Medrano, Lord of Agoncillo, Knight of the Order of Calatrava, a member of His Majesty's Council, and the Alcalde of Hijosdalgo of the Royal Chancery of Valladolid.[19]
