Nobsa, Administrative municipality in Boyacá, Colombia.

The municipality of Nobsa stands at 2,510 meters above sea level in the Sugamuxi Province of Boyacá department, spanning 55 square kilometers.

Jerónimo Holguín and Misael Millán established Nobsa on January 9, 1593, in territory previously governed by the Tundama ruler of the Muisca Confederation.

The name Nobsa originates from the Chibcha language, translating to 'Decent bath of today' and reflecting the deep indigenous heritage of this region.

The municipal administration center provides governmental services to 16,271 residents across both urban and rural areas, maintaining essential community infrastructure.

Local economic activities combine traditional wooden furniture crafting with modern limestone mining operations, creating employment opportunities for the population.
