The Order of Santiago was established in the 12th century (around 1170) in the Kingdom of León. It was founded to defend Christians during the Reconquista and to protect pilgrims journeying to Santiago de Compostela.

Named for and symbolized by the Apostle Saint James, Spain's patron and a central figure in medieval warrior mythology, the order originally combined military and religious pursuits, integrating protection efforts with a spiritual life.
