Fue fundada por Tomás de Rocamora el 25 de Junio de 1783 con el nombre de "Villa Arroyo de la China" y por ley del 26 de agosto de 1826, fue elevada a la categoría de ciudad. Se puede decir que fue una de las ciudades más importantes en la historia de nuestro país y por tal motivo la apodan "La Histórica".
Es considerada el primer pueblo adherido a la Revolución de Mayo y cuna de los Generales Francisco Ramírez (el Supremo Entrerriano, paladín del Federalismo) y Justo José de Urquiza (el Organizador de la Nación). Por este motivo, fue la capital de Entre Ríos de 1813 a 1821 y de 1860 a 1883.
El general Urquiza poseía aquí un saladero y puerto para embarcar su producción.
