THE AREA
In ancient times, the area was called Contestania, part of the Roman province of Tarraconense.
There would have been large Roman settlement of soldier-settlers who cultivated the surrounding farmlands while defending them from hypothetical pirate attacks.
The Torre Mínguez farm is officially considered the origin of the town of Santiago de la Ribera. It was built by Don Antonio Lissón, Councilor of the city of Murcia and passed into the hands of his heirs.
One of the heirs was Doña Teresa Sandoval y Mena, who would marry Don José María Barnuevo y Rodrigo de Villamayor de Ulloa.
The couple frequently visited Torre Mínguez and there they planned two ambitious projects: building a hotel, and planning the division of the property through the emphyteutic census system (perpetual transfer of land through the payment of an annual fee). With this system, a family could acquire ownership of a plot of land and build their home there.
Thus, in 1888 a new hamlet was born on the shores of the Mar Menor: Santiago de la Ribera, whose name derives from the membership of Don José María Barnuevo to the Order of Santiago and from the location of the town on the shores of the lagoon.
Modern-day Santiago de la Ribera has tourism and the nearby military air base as great pillars of the municipality’s economic sustainability, as was the civil airport (known as San Javier) until its closure in January 2019. To a lesser degree, fishing and agriculture are also important.
