  • The oldest document in our archives is a minute book dating from 23rd March 1910 from “Casino Espanyol”, formed by a group of residents concerned about the need for associationism. Their patron saint was San Jaime.
  • A year later, the name was changed to "Circulo Instructivo Legitimista".
  • In 1914, the construction of the organisation’s first wholly owned building was approved.
  • In 1928, a recreation room was set up for members and the creation of the Rural Savings Bank was approved, which began operating on 15th July.
  • In 1966, new offices were built on a plot of land located along the Camino Artana. In 1976, these offices were extended; in 1987 there were extended again, and in 2005 the final extension work was carried out leaving the offices as they stand today.
  • On 25th July 1967, the social premises were officially unveiled, built on a plot of land where, in the early 20th Century the first building had been constructed for the Agricultural Union.  Also in that year, land was bought for a manure storage facility. And later, this building would be turned into the current Cooperative Room.
