This bullring has the peculiarity of being inside the castle of Fregenal de la Sierra.
This wonderful bullring can be found inside the parade ground of the castle of the Knights Templar in Fregenal de la Sierra, Badajoz. Its construction dates back to 1785, but in the 20th century - in 1904 to be specific - its capacity was increased, and so now 4,800 spectators fit inside it. It is considered one of the most beautiful bullrings in Spain, in spite of its irregular shape.
