Gustavo A. Madero, Mexico City

History

Founded as "Villa de Guadalupe" in 1563, it became the city of "Villa de Guadalupe Hidalgo" in 1828, and finally a delegación in 1931. It was named after Gustavo A. Madero, the brother and fellow revolutionary of President Francisco I. Madero.

The Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, which ended the Mexican–American War of 1846–1848, was signed in Gustavo A. Madero.
