Villatobas is a municipality with a rich history that dates back to ancient times. Archaeological studies indicate that the area was inhabited from the 4th or 3rd century BC by various peoples. The first written record of Villatobas appears in the charter of Montealegre in 1219, where it is mentioned as "Villa de Tobas" Villatobas was also the scene of important events during the War of Independence in the 19th century. Over the centuries, it has managed to preserve its historical heritage, including its parish church dedicated to San Juan Bautista and the ruins of its 13th-century castle.

The hermitage of San Jorge dates back to the first half of the 16th century. In the 1970s, the hermitage was practically in ruins, so it was rebuilt thanks to the neighbours of the Arrabal area. This devotion to San Jorge is possibly due to the ancient tradition that said that this saint protected the population from epidemics, diseases and plagues, so common and deadly in the Middle Ages. In addition to the hermitage of San Jorge, Villatobas has other hermitages such as those of Jesús Nazareno, Santa Ana, Santa Catalina, San Cristóbal, San José, and the parish of Nuestra Señora de la Asunción, all of them from the 16th and 17th centuries.
