The Clavero, a lay member in charge of the custody of the keys to the convent and the archive, lived there.
In exchange for this custody, the Clavero had more than 9,500 hectares of the Alcantareña pastures for his benefit.

The town of Alcántara and the Convent of San Benito have a long and interesting history. It is a must visit if you are in the area.
