History

In 1522, by order of Cortez, Gonzalo de Sandoval founded the settlement of Villa del Espiritu Santo.

In 1793, localities in the region, including Coatzacoalcos, were affected by a volcanic eruption and earthquake.

In 1882, Coatzacoalcos became the administrative center of the new municipality. In 1900, he received a city status (villa), and was thus renamed Puerto Mesico (Puerto México). In 1911, Puerto Meshico became a city (ciudad). In 1936, the name Coatzacoalcos was returned to him.
