Puertollano, Industrial municipality in Ciudad Real Province, Spain

Located at 708 meters above sea level, Puertollano extends across the transitional region between the Inner Plateau and Sierra Morena mountain range.

The settlement transformed after the 1873 coal discovery, developing from a small village into a significant mining center during World War I.

The municipality contains archaeological sites with remains from multiple periods, including Bronze Age weapons and Visigoth burial grounds.

The Madrid-Seville high-speed train line connects Puertollano to major Spanish cities, with regular services throughout the day.

The Campo de Calatrava volcanic area near Puertollano features iron-rich water springs, including the Fuente Agria natural fountain.
