History

The name of the present-day town originated in the merger of the towns of Peñarroya and Pueblonuevo del Terrible in 1927. The town of Pueblonuevo del Terrible had its name from a fierce dog that had lived there in the past and that had been nicknamed "Terrible".

The Battle of Peñarroya took place between 5 January and 4 February 1939 towards the end of the Spanish Civil War in the area of the town, which was located near the Extremaduran front line.[3]

gollark: I have this here:```server.use((req, res, next) => { res.locals.flash = req.flash next()})```and res.locals contains that when I console.log it in the handler... but apparently my template doesn't have `flash` available?
gollark: On an unrelated note it appears that I do not understand express.js locals.
