Banfield, South suburban city in Greater Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Banfield extends across a residential area with tree-lined streets, located 14 kilometers south of Buenos Aires city center at 16 meters above sea level.
The establishment of the railway station in 1871 marked the foundation of Banfield, following a period when British settlers developed the initial urban layout.
The Julian Aguirre Conservatory of Music, established in 1951, educates musicians and organizes regular concerts that enrich the local cultural programming throughout the year.
The city connects to central Buenos Aires through regular train services at Banfield station, with additional bus routes operating across the metropolitan network.
The Pozo de Banfield, a former detention center during Argentina's military regime, now functions as a museum documenting historical events of the 1970s.
