After the conquest of Valencia by Jaime I, the Ruzafa gardens became farmlands with farmhouses occupied by the conquerors. The army of Jaime I settled in Ruzafa to direct the siege and the conquest of Valencia from here. The surrender of Muslim Valencia would also be signed here, on September 28, 1238.

From 1811 to 1877, Ruzafa was an independent town from Valencia.
