In this way, the city of Albarracín became the seat of the bishops of Segorbe.
•
In 1172 Pedro Ruiz de Azagra, son of the Lord of Estella, took the city of Albarracín and succeeded in establishing a bishop there (Martín).
•
Martín took the title of Arcabricense, and afterwards that of Segobricense, thinking that Albarracín was nearer to the ancient Segobriga (Segorbe) than to Ercavica or Arcabrica.
