Canelones ({{IPA-es|kaneˈlones}}) is the capital of the department of Canelones in Uruguay. Its name is derived from a species of cinnamon, which is called "canelón", growing along the banks of the homonymous river.[1] Since 2010, the city is also the seat of the municipality of Canelones.

Location

The city is located on Route 5 about {{convert|50|km}} North of Montevideo and on its intersection with Route 64. It lies on the west bank of the river Arroyo Canelón Chico.

History

It was founded on 24 April 1783 under the name "Villa Guadalupe". It became capital of one of the nine earlier Departments of the Republic. The railroad arrived here in 1874, while in 1908 National Route 5 from Montevideo was inaugurated. On 23 March 1916, it was renamed to "Canelones" and its status was elevated to "Ciudad" (city) by the Act of Ley Nº 5.400.[2]

Population

According to the 2011 census, Canelones had a population of 19,865.[2] In 2010, the Intendencia de Canelones had recorded a population of 25,961 for the municipality during the elections.[1] While Canelones is the capital of the department of the same name, it has a considerably smaller population compared with two other cities in the department, Ciudad de la Costa and Las Piedras.
