Quíbor, Lara, Venezuela
Description
Quíbor is a city with a deep ancestral legacy, capital of the Jiménez municipality in the heart of Lara State. Its history dates back to pre-Hispanic times, when the Achagua people developed advanced irrigation systems in these semi-arid lands; its official foundation as Nuestra Señora de Altagracia de Quíbor occurred in June 1620. Recognized as the Artisan City of Venezuela, Quíbor preserves a valuable cultural and indigenous heritage, kept in its Francisco Tamayo Anthropological Museum, and remains an essential connection point among the roads of central Lara.
The Jiménez municipality has a surface area of 768 km² and recorded a population of 110,872 inhabitants according to the 2011 census, of which the city of Quíbor concentrates about 110,536 inhabitants (INE, "2011 Census", accessed 2026). The name Quíbor comes from the indigenous language and means "to plant and harvest," a reflection of the fertile agricultural calling that has characterized this region over the centuries (Wikipedia, "Municipio Jiménez (Lara)", accessed 2026).
