Ciudadela, Buenos Aires
Ciudadela is a city in Greater Buenos Aires, Buenos Aires Province, Argentina. It is located in the Tres de Febrero Partido, immediately to the west of the neighborhood of Liniers in Buenos Aires city proper. It is separated from the city by General Paz avenue. History Home to a cattle ranch in colonial times (''Rancho de Castro''), the area was the site of a base of operations for Viceroy Santiago de Liniers during the British invasions of the Río de la Plata of 1806. The first settlement was named ''Villa Liniers'' in his honor, and was the site of a major military camp after 1902.
