Reading edition

Zurita, loc. cit.—The order to receive the tribunal in the Aljafería bears date January 12, 1486 (Arch. gén. de la C. de A., Reg. 3684, fol. 83). Subsequently it was transferred to the archiepiscopal palace in order to let the Aljafería be occupied by a member of the royal family, but the inquisitors complained and were allowed to return in 1498. They encroached upon the royal apartments, much to Ferdinand’s disgust, as expressed in a letter of September 30, 1511. In January, 1515, he ordered them to leave the palace and rent accommodations in the city, but finally they obtained permanent possession.—Archivo de Simancas, Inquisicion, Libro 1; Libro 3, fol. 155, 321, 322.
