The town of Nogales was incorporated into the lordship of Feria in 1395 after its purchase by Gómez I Suárez de Figueroa, the first lord of Feria. In the mid-15th century, the repopulation of the locality began, and the construction of the castle to protect its inhabitants commenced.
Above the gate of the homage tower, you can find a coat of arms of the Figueroa family and another of the Manuel family, along with an inscription indicating that the fortress was built by the order of Lorenzo Suárez de Figueroa, the son of Gómez Suárez de Figueroa, in 1458.
On the gate of the walled enclosure, there are two more coats of arms, one of the Figueroa-Manuel family and another of the Osorio and Rojas family. These coats of arms were placed in 1464 by Gómez Suárez de Figueroa, the son of Lorenzo Suárez de Figueroa.
The military use of the building continued over time and was employed during conflicts with the French and Portuguese. Although it did not fall into a state of ruin, the passage of time and neglect deteriorated the structure until the Junta de Extremadura decided to restore it in the late 20th century.
References:The ancient Argos Theater was built in 320 BC. and is located in Argos, Greece against Larissa Hill. Nearby from this site is Agora, Roman Odeon, and the Baths of Argos. The theater is one of the largest architectural developments in Greece and was renovated in ca 120 AD.
The Hellenistic theater at Argos is cut into the hillside of the Larisa, with 90 steps up a steep incline, forming a narrow rectilinear cavea. Among the largest theaters in Greece, it held about 20,000 spectators and is divided by two landings into three horizontal sections. Staircases further divide the cavea into four cunei, corresponding to the tribes of Argos A high wall was erected to prevent unauthorized access into the theatron and may have helped the acoustics, but it is said the sound quality is still very good today.
Around 120 CE, both theaters were renovated in the Roman style.
