Guarromán

Guarromán stands at 345 meters above sea level in Jaén Province, surrounded by the expansive Sierra Morena mountain range and connected through the district of La Carolina.

King Carlos III established Guarromán in the 18th century as part of the New Towns of Sierra Morena, initially settling German colonists around a former roadside café location.

The Iglesia de la Inmaculada Concepción, built in the 18th century, displays red sandstone architecture and holds sculptures by artist Jacinto Higueras within its colonial-style structure.

The municipal electronic headquarters provides citizens with direct access to public contracts, announcements, and administrative services through their official website.

The town's coat of arms incorporates a red castle, silver crowned lion, fleurs-de-lis, and an arch bridge, topped with a Royal crown reflecting its founding heritage.
