==History==
==History==
The city was founded by [[Alonso Fernández de Lugo]] on May 3, 1493. It was located between a river which is situated by a cave named ''Tedote'' (now ''Cueva de Carías'', located north of the city). The city, originally called ''Villa del Apurón'', served as a port that connected routes to the Americas, exporting goods from the island such as sugarcane. The city was sacked by pirates and was later reconstructed and fortified against future pirate attacks. Famous fortifications include the ''[[Castillo de Santa Catalina (La Palma)|Castillo de Santa Catalina]]'' and ''Castillo de la Virgen''. The economic crisis that affected the agriculture sector brought the greatest loss of population in the city's history, which limited its expansion and caused the population to stabilize and drop to 11,000. The population did not approach its original 18,000 again for the next hundred years.
