It also included the titles of the county of Niebla, seigneury of Sanl\u00facar, the marquisate of Cazaza, Valverde and Gibraltar and the county of Saltes. The Duchy of Medina Sidonia was awarded for the first time to Juan Alonso P\u00e9rez de Guzm\u00e1n in the late fifteenth century, as a reward for military service to the king. Until the eighteenth century the title was tied to the P\u00e9rez de Guzm\u00e1n family and included the domains in Western Andalusia of San L\u00facar de Barrameda, Niebla and Medina Sidonia. During the Early Modern era, the Dukes of Medina Sidonia established themselves as great patrons and had several palaces, convents and churches built in their domains.<\/p>\n<p>Read more:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\">L.
