Resum

The figure of king Jaume I the Conqueror is well-known, but few times his fundamental role when dealing with the first sanitary policies has been raised. Medicine, at the height of the 13th century, was experiencing a principal transformation that would mark its evolution during all the late Middle Ages. King Jaume I constituted progressively amodel of doctor linked to university, and, at the same time, he favoured the establishment of a good number of medical assistants on valencian lands, which had just been conquered. Moreover, he created the first institutions dedicated to watch over the public health of the new Valencian society.
