" 300 YEARS OF THE FOUNDING OF CHIHUAHUA "

09 - OCTOBER - 2009

The origin of the Chihuahua City begins with the discovery of the nearby mines and founded the town of Santa Eulalia de Merida. In 1652 Captain Don Diego del Castillo managed the first lawsuit in the region, but due to weather and the constant attacks of hostile natives, the operation was suspended on several occasions. Later in the year 1707, were discovered major mineral deposits of which spurred the development of Real de Minas de Santa Eulalia and laid the groundwork for the emergence of other settlements that eventually led to the present city of Chihuahua.
