In this peaceful Village that lays at the margins of the National Route N° 9 can be found the birthplace house and present museum that honours the memory of the poet Leopoldo Lugones (1874 - 1938). This house, with its ample rooms and its courtyard with a fountain, still preserves some of the belongings of the bard, as well as samples of his writings and photographs of his lifetime.

Inside the Parochial Church, located at the front of the Square can be seen the image of the Virgen del Rosario. This image was stolen by the Abipones indigenes and retrieved lately, hence its surname of 'La Cautivita' (the Little Captive) whose story was immortalised by Leopoldo Lugones on a poem.

Another attraction is the ascent of the Romero Mountain, from which summit can be attained some spectacular views of the region as well as visiting the Mausoleum of Lugones. At the feet of this mountain lays the monument to the local hero Francisco 'Pancho' Ramírez, who passed away nearby Chañar Viejo.

Over the National Route N° 9, close to the bus station, is located the Municipal Museum Manuel Ulloa, where several collections containing archaeological objects and works related to the stone drawings of Cerro Colorado can be seen.

From this place the whole extension of the Village can be sighted.

Primera Capilla del Pueblo - First Chapel of the Town
It is situated at the feet of the Romero Mountain, but there remain only vestiges of it. There is an old document which states that around 1611 the parochial ministry was in charge of the priest Juan Sánchez in this place.

Monument to Pancho Ramírez
Located also at the bottom of the Romero Mountain, in the same location of the Primera Capilla del Pueblo. It is a memorial erected by the Government of Entre Ríos to the native hero Francisco Ramírez, as the story tells, at the exact spot where the severed head of the local champion was put on display after being assassinated some few miles away from the Village.

During the early days of 1986, the authorities of Entre Ríos placed a memorial plaque on the monument to confirm their consideration to his memory as well as to the history of Argentina.
