A village with history!

Everybody know that Jorge Nanclares likes History. He knows a lot about many things, because he is used to read a lot. Now, he has written an essay about his town. One clue: the meaning of "crusader" is "cruzado" (warriors from a long time ago, XI Century).

"Cizur Menor, near the city of Pamplona, is a very small but interesting village. Do you think than in the past this village was a crusader town? Incredible but true! On the other hand, I have read that Cizur Menor has a famous restaurant nowadays, called "Tremendo". I had lunch there many times and I recommend it. You should know that I live in this place. I enjoy playing with my friends and, especially, the square of a small café, called "La Parrillada".
