Cristóbal de Moscoso y Montemayor (died 27 January 1749 in Madrid), also known as the Count de las Torres, was a Spanish noble and military. He was the first Count of Las Torres de Alcorrín (1683). King Philip V of Spain made him Viceroy of Valencia in 1706, where he fought without success against the Allies. In 1723, he became Viceroy of Navarre.[1][2] In 1727, he led the Spanish troops in the unsuccessful Thirteenth Siege of Gibraltar. Despite the failure, he was made Marquis de Cullera, and in 1728, Duke d’Algete and a Grandee of Spain. Notes1. ^Coxe, W., Memoires of the Kings of Spain in the House of Bourbon...1700 to 1788.
