History
The territorial demarcation of Los Montesinos belonged to the municipality of Almoradí from the 16th century until 1990, in which the traditional guardianship that this population had exercised ended. By Decree 140/90 of the Consell de la Generalidad Valenciana, Los Montesinos became an independent municipality.
Its appearance is related to the establishment of irrigation areas in the area adjacent to the Torrevieja salt flats, through the Canal de los Riegos de Levante.
The name of the town possibly comes from the surname of a former owner who gave name to a farm that gave rise to the current urban center.
