History

Following European colonization, the lands were distributed in grants. The first Spanish owners weren't able to use them productively, so their ownership was passed to the Jesuits, who were then expelled by Charles III of Spain.

The Zarate Partido was founded on March 19, 1854, separating it from Exaltacion de la Cruz.
