Colonia del Sacramento is a city located on the Río de la Plata with approximately 32.000 inhabitants. The departamento capital was founded in January 1680, making it the oldest city in Uruguay. Its architecturally interesting old town with cobblestone alleys and charming squares was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1995. Worth seeing are the imposing city gate with a drawbridge from the 18th century, the Calle de los Suspiros, the lighthouse, and the Basílica del Santísimo Sacramento. The streets are also home to fantastic urban art, from colorful graffiti to creative wall paintings. In particular, an open air streetart gallery has been established at a long wall next to the Campus Municipal Profesor Alberto Suppici stadium, with numerous contributions by local and national artists.
