The Roman city of Regina Turdulorum is located in the municipality of Casas de Reina, in the province of Badajoz. This archaeological site is one of the most important in Extremadura and was declared a Site of Cultural Interest in 2012. Regina Turdulorum reached its peak during the Flavian period, in the 1st century AD, when it acquired municipal status. The city was strategically located on the road that connected Augusta Emerita (Mérida) with Hispalis (Seville), which favoured its economic and social development.

The Alcazaba has its origins in Roman times, when the city of Regina Turdulorum was located in this area. However, the current fortress was built during the Almohad period in the 12th century. Later, in 1246, it was conquered by Ferdinand III and given to the Order of Santiago, becoming the head of an important commandery.
