Abstract


This paper offers new information to better understand the process by which “iglesias patrimoniales” (patrimonial churches: those served by a clergy born within the parish) are founded and developed in the context of the late medieval Castilian city. The founding of San Nicolás, a parochial church in today’s province of Burgos, and its role in the ecclesiastical reformation of this district serve as an example. The bishop Juan Cabeza de Vaca initiated such reformation between 1408 and 1413.
