Royal palaces and dynastic memory: the Alcázar of Segovia The Segovian alcázar became the dynastic space of the last Trastámara with the monarch Enrique IV. The memory of the kings Trastámara of the XV century was dispersed between Toledo, Burgos or Guadalupe related to the funerary space, but this memory was centralized, planned and collected behind the walls of the new representative rooms of the Segovian fortress. The reforms carried out during his tumultuous reign aim to highlight the memory of his ancestors: Catalina de Lancaster, Enrique III and Juan II, placing himself as the last link in this dynastic chain in a moment of civil war for the Castilian throne.
