The municipality was founded under the leadership of the enlightened Pablo de Olavide and, by 1767, had a Central European population. Funded by the state at the request of King Charles III, the colonization was intended to promote agriculture and industry in an uninhabited area threatened by bandits, as well as to increase the security of the royal road connecting Madrid with Cadiz. Initially, the municipality belonged administratively to La Carlota, which, along with other municipalities, was also founded on this occasion.

The administrative district is located in the southwest of the province. The landscape consists mainly of grain fields. The village was founded in 1767 when Carlos III implemented his colonization policy. For this reason, the urban structure corresponds to the linear planning of the Enlightenment. Perhaps the most interesting building is the Palacio de la Intendencia (Palace). History It was founded by Carlos III in 1767 (it also received its name from him). Don Pablo de Olavide was commissioned to carry out the project, and Don Fernando de Quintanilla managed the population, which was mainly German colonists. In 1769, the village had a population of 1,088, of whom 84 were Spanish. At the time of its founding, the colonists were allocated land holdings of 28 fanegas each (fanega: Castilian unit of area: 64,596 ares).
