Reccared II (in Spanish and Portuguese, Recaredo) was Visigothic King of Hispania (the Iberian Peninsula) briefly in 621. His father and predecessor was Sisebut. He was but a child when placed on the throne and as with most Visigothic attempts to establish a royal dynasty, Sisebut's was opposed by the nobility and ultimately failed.
His death allowed the strongman and general Suintila to accede to the throne.
