Batres (Spanish pronunciation: [ˈbatɾes]) is a small town in Spain. The town as is known today was founded in the 12th century after it was recaptured by the Spaniards from the Almoravids, or north African settlers.
The town is a popular destination because of Batres Castle, which is the main tourist attraction.
