History
Casasimarro es un núcleo relativamente moderno. En las Relaciones topográficas de Felipe II de finales del siglo XVI el núcleo aparece denominado como La Casa Simarro. En dicho documento consta la fundación de una aldea llamada la Casa de los Simarro que tuvo lugar en 1470.[cita requerida] La aldea era dependiente de la villa de Villanueva de la Jara.
En 1653 tuvo lugar al otorgamiento a Casasimarro del título de villa por parte de Felipe IV, siendo desde entonces municipio y concejo autónomo a todos los efectos, de organización municipal y gobierno de su antigua dependencia de Villanueva de la Jara.
Casasimarro se hermanó en 2012 con la localidad francesa de Saint Aubin de Médoc y en 2025 con la localidad catalana de Roda de Bará
