The Order of Our Lady of Mercy was founded in Barcelona in 1218 by King James I the Conqueror and San Pedro Nolasco, with religious and military. It has always been closely tied to the Crown of Aragon, and his knights part with the king on important feats of arms, as the conquest of Valencia. After the conquest of Aragon, and converted into regular mendicant order, was dedicated to one of the main purposes for which it was created, the redemption of Christian captives in Muslim lands and care for disadvantaged social sectors. Only eight years after its foundation by King in 1224 is based on Real Zaragoza Convent of St. Lazarus, which had among its tasks for several centuries as a leper and hospital care for lepers and other patients in the city .
Over time, the convent was erected on the main religious center of the suburb and one of the most prominent of the city. The description of its dependencies does Neyla Fray Francisco in the late seventeenth century tells us that had a Latin cross church of great proportions, with eight chapels, three vestries and many retablos, religious images, paintings from Italy and other riches. Furthermore, in the convents were two cloisters, one with a well whose water was famous throughout the city for its quality and purity, a large library, chapter house, garden, cells for the monks and hospital units in which they attended the sick. In addition, the area near the river, had a massive wall that protected the convent of intensive facilities flooding.
Zaragoza Sites During the convent of St. Lazarus was almost completely destroyed, and which served as a defensive stronghold in the north city and its vicinity were experienced some of the bloodiest fighting to protect access to Stone Bridge. After the seizure of Mendizabal, in 1835, the site of the old convent became the headquarters of San Lazaro, and its surroundings experienced an important development in the late nineteenth century, driven by the arrival of the railway and the installation in the vicinity of North Station, becoming one of the most important traditional settlements on the Left Bank.
