The municipality of Sanchotello (232 inhabitants in 2010; 1,403 ha; municipal website) is located 70 km from Salamanca.

Sanchotello was settled in the 9th-10th centuries, as evidenced by a Mozarabic necropolis recently discovered. The village got its name in the late 12th century, when the resettlement of the area was achieved. In 1212, King Alfonso VIII granted Sanchotello with the title of Loyal Village, as a reward for the courage of the villagers in the Battle of La Navas de Tolosa. Incorporated into the Community of the Village and Land of Béjar, Sanchotello was granted in 1479 the Ordinances of the Land of Béjar.
