Restauración

Restauración is the third largest city in the province of Dajabon, Dominican Republic.

The city's foundation dates back to 1882, when the officers Sotero Blanc, Pablo Reyes and Eusebio Gómez expelled the Haitian military that was established in the area, and raised the Dominican flag, thus recovering this territory.

A year later, General Sotero Blanc suggested to the then president Ulises Heureaux, to baptize the place with the name of Cantonal Restoration Post.

31/92 of President Ulises Heureaux, Restauración is elevated to the category of Common [Municipality].

Restauración was the first municipality in the province of Dajabón, created in 1938 through Law 1521 of June 20 of that year.
