Keywords: Moorish quarter, Saracen, Social classes, XV century.

This article aims to address the vision and perception that a specific type of vassals is generated: the Saracens. The fact that we will take as a reference to be able to carry out our objective will be the assault on the Moorish quarter of Valencia in 1455. The documentation generated after this fact will allow us to analyse each of the social classes involved to be able to approach the construction of the “other”.
