History

The Argentine Pastor Servando Obligado owned the lands that would later be Obligado. The city was founded on May 25, 1912 by German colonists who bought the ground.

It was upgraded to District in June 20, 1955.

Obligado, with Hohenau and Bella Vista, make up a cluster of districts in Itapúa called "Colonias Unidas" for their industrial work.
