Bruno Mauricio de Zabala

Bruno Mauricio de Zabala y Gortázar (1682–1736) was a Spanish soldier and colonial administrator. He was born in the slum of Zabala (then located outside the walls of Durango, but now a part of the town) in the province of Biscay. The house of his birth has been preserved to this day, and one of its walls bears two plaques commemorating his exploits in the New World.
