Caldas was founded by J. Osorio in 1849 and got its name in honor of the illustrious Francisco José de Caldas, born in Popayan. In 1905, with the new territorial division of the country, the department of Caldas was created with its capital Manizales. In 1966 the territory of "Old Caldas" was divided into three departments -- Caldas, Quindio and Risaralda.
