Village
Usagre is a municipality located in the province of Badajoz, Extremadura, Spain. In the 2022 registry, 1,765 inhabitants were counted. It is part of the Campiña Sur administrative region.
It was here on 25 May 1811, when Anglo-Allied cavalry commanded by Major-General William Lumley routed a French cavalry force led by Major-General Marie Victor Latour-Maubourg during the Battle of Usagre, part of the Peninsular War.
In 2020 Iberdrola commissioned the Núñez de Balboa Photovoltaic Power Plant in Usagre. With 500MW it was the biggest photovoltaic power station in Europe at the time.

What people eat in Extremadura when they eat well.
From pigs raised in the dehesa pastures; the Extremaduran larder starts here.
Creamy sheep's cheese eaten with a spoon, with the rind as a lid.
Bread, paprika and pork crackling: a shepherds' breakfast that is now a Sunday dish.
Smoked over holm-oak wood; it gives colour and soul to half of Spanish cooking.
Almost every village has its market day and its producers: the cheesemaker, the baker, the vegetable garden next door. Ask at the tourist office or the bar on the square; they'll tell you where to buy straight from the maker.
We haven't confirmed Usagre's market day. Every village has its own: better to ask than to make it up.
