Statue of El Terrible Dog, Peñarroya-Pueblonuevo

Highlight • Monument

Once upon a time, there was a dog here known as "El Terrible" because of its ferocity. That dog is also credited with finding the first coal deposits in the area, around which a town arose, on the outskirts of Peñarroya, which was called Pueblonuevo El Terrible in honor of the feared dog to which they owed so much. Decades later, Peñarroya and Pueblonuevo joined forces, losing the dog's name along the way, but not forgetting him as they built a statue in his honor.

Peñarroja-Pueblonuevo

Highlight • Settlement

Town that was born with the union of two independent municipalities: Peñarroya and Pueblonuevo del Terrible, which grew based on the mining activity of the region in the 19th century. The industrial boom was driven mainly by the Peñarroya Mining and Metallurgical Society (SMMP). The old SMMP buildings were converted after their decline in the mid-20th century into public buildings, such as a health center or geriatric hospital.

Fuente Obejuna

Highlight • Settlement

A town known above all for the play "Fuenteovejuna" from 1619 written by Lope de Vega, considered one of the most important theatrical dramas of the Spanish Golden Age. Among the heritage of Fuente Obejuna, the Church of Nuestra Señora del Castillo stands out, which is located in the center, at the highest point, the Church of San Francisco and Casa Cardona.

Fuente Obejuna Town Center

Highlight • Settlement

This town is perhaps best known for inspiring Lope de Vega's work "Fuenteovejuna" about the events that took place here in the 15th century that ended with the death of the village commander Fernán Gómez de Guzmán at the hands of the residents.

It has also often been associated with the Roman municipality of Mellaria, although the most recent historical investigations make it clear that this Roman town does not share the same past as Fuente Obejuna and that it was actually located on a nearby hill.
