Overview

The municipality of  Támara was officially founded on 6 August 1928, but the first Jesuit colonization started in the early XVIIth century, in an area already settled by natives for ages. By Decree 57 of 10 August 1999, the Departmental Assembly of Casanare proclaimed Támara "Patrimonío Histórico Cultural y Arquitectónico de Casanare" (Historic, Cultural and Architectonic Heritage of Casanare). The municipal website shows the flag and a more detailed rendition of the arms.
