Graneros

Graneros is a commune in Cachapoal Province located in fertile agricultural land in central Chile. The municipality includes farmland, rural settlements, and a town center where local services and shops are concentrated.

The town was founded in 1899 as a small agricultural settlement in the region. Over the 20th century it grew into an important administrative center supporting the Cachapoal Province.

The town grew around farming traditions that still shape daily life in the area today. Residents connect with the agricultural calendar and the land in ways that remain visible in how the community organizes itself.

The town is relatively easy to reach and sits in a fairly flat terrain at moderate elevation. Visitors should plan time to explore the rural surroundings and know that most local services are clustered in the town center.

The Casa Hodgkinson stands as the most striking building in town and dates from a period when the region began to expand. It reflects how local families shaped the character of this place over time.
