Historical review

The first written record of Laluenga is June 3, 1395, which was acquired by Bernardo de Pinos, by purchase from King Juan I, although some historians claim that the sale was made by his brother Martin, king of Sicily.
  On March 23, 1417 Alfonso V the Magnanimous sold it to his advisor Berenguer de Bardaji, whom he named Justicia de Aragón.

Under his rule he remained until October 30, 1494, when Ferdinand the Catholic joined the Aragonese royal heritage, although for a short time since in 1552 the widow of Berenguer de Bardají sold the barony of Pertusa to which he belonged.
Laluenga, to the city of Zaragoza.

In Roman times, the Ilerda-Osca imperial road passed by the outskirts of Laluenga, a circumstance that may explain the name of the locality 'la larga' (la longa).
