History
The settlement of Navas del Rey is not known to have a specific origin. Some historians link the town to the Monastery of Santa María de Valdeiglesia in the 12th century, although some texts recovered in the Libro de la montería of Alfonso XI note that the area was used by monarchs for hunting. In the vicinity of the settlement, the hunting pavilion of Castilian monarchs known as the House of La Asperilla could be found situated in a meadow owned by the crown, known as Dehesa Real.
The first form that the urban centre took was in 1774, when the ecclesiastical separation of the township from San Martín de Valdeiglesias was recognised.
