How Did the City Develop Through History?
Early historical documentation found within the Archivo Nacional de Asunción from the opening years of the seventeenth century mentions the locality as Villa de Capiatá. Following the establishment of Asunción on August 15, 1537, administrative oversight over the area fell to the Cabildo and Regimiento. The settlement expanded around a local chapel dedicated to the Virgin of Candelaria. Franciscan influence and the strategic positioning of the area along the Franciscan circuit turned the region into one of the most densely settled parts of the territory.
The settlement attained official city status on May 20, 1878, alongside the establishment of its municipal board. Decades later, in 1968, the jurisdiction was elevated to the status of a municipality, with Luis Alberto Rachit Fiandro taking office as its first mayor.
