Presentation of La Zarza-Perrunal

The municipality of La Zarza-Perrunal (1,521 inhabitants; municipal website) was established by Decree No. 185 issued on 2 October 2018 by the Government of Andalusia and published on 9 October 2018 in the official gazette of Andalusia, No. 196, pp. 143-169 (text), and on 23 January 2019 in the Spanish official gazette, No. 20, pp. 5,791-5,812 (text).
The process of separation was initiated on 23 December 2013 by the Municipal Council of Calañas. The separation was validated on 6 May 2015 by the Huelva Provincial Council, on 30 June 2016 by the Andalusian Council of Local Consultation, and on 20 June 2018 by the Andalusian Consultative Council.

La Zarza-Perrunal was established on 30 March 1993 as the merger of the mining boroughs of La Zarza and Perrunal. Silos de Calañas was renamed La Zarza on 19 February 1991.
The oldest mining record in La Zarza is dated 6 July 1564, with two sites, Los Silos and El Becerrito. Abandoned for centuries, the mines were re-discovered in 1853 by the French engineer Ernest Deligny. The Société Française des Pyrites de Huelva was granted in 1900 a concession for the systematic exploitation of the pyrites mines. A cemetery is recorded in 1905 in Silos-Perrunal, which indicates the presence of a stabilized settlement. A casino was built in 1919; a post of the Civil Guard was operated from 1921 to 1963. The mine was subsequently transferred to the Tharsis Sulphur and Copper Co. Ltd. Damaged in 1949 by a blaze, the mine was closed in 1969.

The first flag and arms of La Zarza-Perrunal were adopted on 30 April 1998 by the Municipal Council of Calañas. The registration process does not appear to have been ever completed.
The symbols are described as follows:

Flag: Rectangular, in proportions 11 x 18, white with 11 blue gyrons covering the third of the flag closest to the hoist. Charged in the center with the local coat of arms.
Coat of arms: Azure thorns or surrounded by two dogs argent collared gules in base a pickaxe and a shovel or hilted argent in saltire. The shield surmounted by a Royal crown closed.

The symbols were proposed in 1997 by Juan José Antequera, who was commissioned on 25 July 1994 by the Village Council of La Zarza. The thorns (zarza) and the dogs (perros) make the arms canting. The mining tools recall the past of the village.
This superseded an earlier proposal of arms, "A French shield. Quarterly, 1. Azure a mount gules ensigned by a pine proper, 2. A lamp or; 3. A pickaxe and a shovel or crossed per saltire, 4. Azure a miner's helmet gules. The shield surmounted by an atypical crown inscribed with 'La Zarza' and surrounded dexter by the national flag and sinister by the Andalusian flag."
