In 1492, when the Jews were expelled from Spain, the Town Council of Vitoria [-Gasteiz] took an oath to respect the cemetery and not cultivate the land. The Town Council kept its word for almost 500 years. In 1952, the descendants of the expelled Jews who had made their new homes in Bayonne France released the City of Vitoria-Gasteiz from its oath. However, the City continued to keep its promise.
