The 17th century saw the birth of Juan LLOREN, a renowned painter and artist whose works adorned the walls of many noble households and religious institutions throughout Spain. His artistic legacy has been preserved in various collections and museums.

During the 18th century, the LLOREN name gained further prominence with Miguel LLOREN, a celebrated navigator and explorer who embarked on several voyages to the Americas and documented his travels extensively. His journals and maps have become valuable historical resources.
