Solana de los Barros is a municipality located in the province of Badajoz, in the autonomous community of Extremadura. The history of Solana de los Barros dates back to Roman times, with archaeological remains proving the existence of rustic villas in the area. During the Middle Ages, the enclave was occupied by the Knights Templar and later repopulated in the 15th century. In addition, Solana de los Barros is known for its agricultural production, especially wine and olive oil.

The fortress has a 35-metre-high keep and a perimeter wall with cylindrical towers at the corners. Originally, the castle had a drawbridge that allowed access through a moat, although this no longer exists. The castle was restored by the Junta de Extremadura at the end of the 20th century, preserving its structure and historical elements.
