The name of Caseres first appeared in official papers way back in 1153. These documents were from the Miravet castle. At that time, the castle belonged to a famous group of knights called the Knights Templar.

Later, in 1359, the castle and its lands, including Caseres, were taken over by another group of knights. These were the Knights Hospitaller.
