It was one of the most important engineering works carried out in Europe in the 18th century. The plan was designed during the Enlightenment to build canals in Spain in the likeness of England and France.

Nice route along the Canal Emperion de Aragon.

As early as 1510, the Juras of Zaragoza asked King Fernando el Católico for the privilege of building a canal from the Ebro in order to improve and expand the irrigation of the southern orchard in Zaragoza. A masonry dam and canal from El Bocal to Gallur were built for 10 years. Economic and political difficulties as well as technical problems prevented the end of the construction.

Everything changed on May 9, 1772 when Count Aranda appointed Ramón de Pignatelli as the protector of the canal, whose idea was to build a canal that would connect the Cantabrian Sea to the Mediterranean, combining the need to irrigate the upper bank of To satisfy Ebro. In 1782 the water of the canal reached the city of Zaragoza.
