Considered the oldest populations of Chiriqui, was founded in 1589,(according to historians recognized Alberto Osorio, Ernesto Castillero and Ruben D. Carles) by Captain Martin Gutierrez, receiving the name of "Our Lady of Remedios". The location became an important commercial center for three reason:
1. Its proximity to the sea
2. For having the resources needed to manufacture timber vessels.
3. Joins Santiago from Veraguas and Alanje (Previously known as Chiriqui).
Remedios was the focus of evangelism of the Guaymi Indians of the area.
