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.
