The municipality of Pobladura de Pelayo García (472 inhabitants in 2009; 2,017 ha) is located in the southeast of León Province, 40 km of León.
Pobladura de Pelayo García must have been a resettled place (pobla) following the Christian reconquest. Pelayo García must have been the leader of the resettlement, but nothing on him has remained in written history.
