The city was founded in 1849 by settlers from Antioquia.<\/p>\n

Around the year 1880, the center of the city became an industrial center. This happened because coffee production and everything around it began to grow in the region.<\/p>\n

During the thousand days war in the year 1900 and especially after, the importance of a superior county and the province of Caldas was born. Then, Manizales is designated as the capital of the province.<\/p>\n

In 1880 Manizales had 10 sugar mills, eight weaving mills, one liquor factory, two tanneries, three shoe factories, three looms, and four saddleries.<\/p>\n

The inauguration of the Caldas Railroad in 1919 connected the city with Puerto Caldas and in 1927 it was extended to reach Pereira and Armenia.<\/p>\n

From 1950 to 1970, Manizales was consolidated as the coffee epicenter of Colombia and an important emporium in the western part of the country.<\/p>\n

In the year 1943, the first university was opened in the city. Many new universities followed after that within Colombia was promoted as a university city.<\/p>\n
