ANNIVERSARY OF

BARRANQUILLA

On April 7, 2021, another year of the

founding of the city of Barranquilla was
celebrated, located in the Department of
Atlántico, Colombia. A city that, unlike many
others in Colombia, enjoys the virtue of not
having been conquered, if not contrary to it,
later populated and founded.

The historical annals of this city, evoke a time

in which peasants from neighboring towns
traveled not infrequently to this place, to
feed cows, horses and other livestock that
were part of their daily lives and used within
the framework of their economic activities.
on a small scale. Given the frequency with
which these peasants came to the location of
the city, the process of populating it began,
which was triggered in its subsequent
foundation.

Barranquilla has been historically recognized

as a determining city for the economic,
industrial, commercial, financial and cultural
development of the region in which it finds
place and of an entire nation.
