Tardajos has a long history. In 1127, it received a special set of rules called a fuero. This was given by Count Pedro González de Lara and Countess Eva.

A fuero was like a special law or charter. It gave the town and its people certain rights and freedoms. This helped the town grow and develop.

The fuero for Tardajos was updated several times. Count Pedro or Countess Eva re-issued it with changes. The last time it was updated was in 1147.
