Its original name was that of Navas de los Puercos, Felipe II authorized it to form a dependent town of Constantina in 1557.
On February 11, 1854 it is confirmed as an independent town by Royal Decree of Isabel II. For this event, they will change the name of Las Navas de los Puercos by Las Navas de la Concepción.
