Valle de Matamoros is a small and charming municipality in the province of Badajoz, in the autonomous community of Extremadura, located in the Sierra Suroeste region, very close to Jerez de los Caballeros. It lies on the eastern slope of the Sierra de San José mountain range, with altitudes ranging from 550 to 670 meters. Its rugged terrain gives it a unique urban layout, with steep streets and natural viewpoints along the village's access roads.

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.
