Colbún, Administrative commune in Linares Province, Chile
Colbún extends across 2,899 square kilometers in the Maule Region, featuring both urban settlements and extensive rural territories at 239 meters above sea level.
The area transformed from its early identity as Panimávida to become an official commune on December 30, 1927, marking a new chapter in local governance.
The name originates from Mapudungun, the language of the Mapuche people, where it refers to the concept of land clearing and preparation.

The nearby village of Rari produces intricate crafts made from horse hair, maintaining a traditional artisanal practice specific to this region.
