The Catedral de Santiago Foundation

Detail from the center of the parchment on which we find the stamp of the royal seal, with a lion surrounded by the text "Signum Fernandi Regis Hispaniarum." This is how the monarch signed himself after the death of his brother, Sancho.

The stamp separates 2 columns of co-signatories. On one side are the bishops of the Kingdom of León and on the other are court figures.
