Juayúa is a pre-Columbian Pipil town that was part of the Spanish colonization in El Salvador. In the 19th century, the inhabitants began to cultivate coffee, which led to the prosperity of the locality. In 1906, Juayúa was granted city status. The city was damaged by an earthquake in 1915 but has since recovered and now relies on tourism and agriculture, especially coffee. It celebrates its patron saint festivities in January in honor of the Black Christ and offers natural sites and attractions.
