"The origins of the core are at the time of the Byzantine Empire when the heirs of civilization tartesia founded the Balbibilis turdetana destroyed in the time of the Visigoths. Its current name comes from the Arabic Al-Gaba , which means 'the forest'. Fernando III reconquered in 1247 and gave it to his son Don Fadrique. At death he returned to royal power. In 1304 was given to the infant Don Alfonso de la Cerda, who later ceded to the Duke of Niebla. Finally, he changed it to Don Juan Guzman Medina Sidonia. It was Felipe II who created the Marquess of La Algaba to counterbalance the economic hardship of the Treasury, being subject the town to the Lordship until the nineteenth century when it was established the Constitutional Hall . The original nucleus of the population consists of an enclosure Walled wide to the characteristics of the population and has been overtaken by recent building. Thus, next to the limits of traditional hull neighborhoods built in the decades of the 1950, 60 and 70 are located, tending the most recent buildings (decades of 1980 and 90) to occupy agricultural spaces between the three physical limits urban space, which are: the river Guadalquivir, the local road SE-431 and the road of Santiponce."
