Madrigal de las Altas Torres (in English: Madrigal of the high towers) is a municipality of Spain located in the province of Ávila, autonomous community of Castile and León.
[3] The toponym is recorded earliest in the middle ages as Matrigale and Madrigal, whilst the second part of the current placename is a late modern addition.
[4] Hitherto a hamlet of the land of Arévalo, Madrigal earned a fuero in 1017 (ratified in 1168), becoming closely linked to the affairs of the House of Trastámara in the late middle ages.
[4] The town was encircled by walls in the Middle Ages (following a near-circular outline).
[6] The Junta of Castile and León declared the historical centre of the municipality as bien de interés cultural (conjunto histórico) in September 2020.
