History

Around 1842, the decimated indigenous population, as a result of the violence against them by the Spaniards, decided to formalize the organization of the hamlet, creating Quinchía Viejo. On November 29, 1886, the current municipality of Quinchía emerged, by the will of Messrs. Gabriel Vinasco, Zoilo Bermúdez, José Natalio and Protasio Gómez.

Quinchia was officialized on November 29, 1888,also On April 24, 1912 the town was declared a municipality. At the beginning of the 20th century, the Indigenous Reservation would end, through negotiations and all kinds of maneuvers by the Antioquia settlers who ended up taking over the lands.[2]

It's located in the Colombian coffee growing axis, part of the "Coffee Cultural Landscape" UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2011.

Climate

Quinchía has a subtropical highland climate with an average annual temperature of 18°C.[3]
