Answer

The city of Alcaudete was conquered in 1312 by the Christian King Ferdinand IV of Castile. The city had been under Muslim rule for centuries, but Ferdinand's victory marked a major turning point in the Reconquista, the Christian reconquest of Spain from the Muslims. Alcaudete remained in Christian hands for the rest of the Middle Ages, and it is now a part of the modern Spanish province of Jaén.
