Years
1492–1833
Role
Hamlet of Aracena, a town from 1753

Campofrío, a hamlet already mentioned in 1401 and 1411, depended on Aracena until Ferdinand VI granted its separation by royal privilege in 1753. In the mid-16th century its people were spread over 18 small settlements, and the brotherhood of Saint James the Apostle, which drove the building of its bullring in 1716, held great political and economic power, above all in the second half of the 18th century. The bullring survives from the period.
