Overview
This city of 38,799 inhabitants was founded in 1752. The red
symbolizes our Patron Saint San Sebasti�n M�rtir [Sebastia'n Ma'rtir],
and the heroic deeds of September 24, 1868, when our town was the
place where blood was shed during the events originating in the
Revolutionary Movement of Lares. The green represents the
mountains of the Pepino, and the white wavy stripe stands for the
R�o Culebrinas.
