History

The town was established on the lands of an estancia responsible for dairy production owned by a landowner who gave the town its name.[2] The laying out of the town began in 1916.[3]
In 1928, a church, led by architect Alejandro Bustillo, was constructed in the center of the town, inspired by an abandoned church of the type in Italy.[4] In 1963, the church was elevated to the status of a parish and assumed the name of Sagrada Familia. In 2000, the church was declared a cultural site by the Argentine government.[5]
