La Unión, Dairy production center in Los Ríos Region, Chile
Located 40 kilometers north of Osorno, La Unión extends over 2,136 square kilometers between agricultural fields and western forested mountains.
The city was established in 1821 during Bernardo O'Higgins administration to maintain control of the Central Valley territories south of Valdivia.
The name La Unión originates from the meeting point of Llollelhue and Radimadi rivers, with an alternative translation from Mapudungun meaning Spirit Union.
The municipal territory includes the Alerce Costero National Park in its western section, offering access to protected native forest territories.
Until 2001, the city functioned as residential base for workers of the Catamutún coal mines, marking its industrial development period.
