The first inhabitants in the region, prior to the Spanish colonization of the Americas were indigenous peoples pertaining to the Cariachiles ethnic group. Capichin friars named the village "Población de San Lucas de El Molino" because of a Wheat Mill (grinding) which was later demolished. Besides Spanish families, El Molino also received colonizers from Portugal, France and Germany to a lesser scale.[3] El Molino became a corregimiento of the municipality of Villanueva and subsequently became a municipality in 1989.
