The Heroic City designation was conferred in 2015 in recognition of the action on 10 April 1867 during the Second French Intervention in which, according to municipal authorities, Republican forces under General Porfirio Díaz defeated a contingent of Imperialists under General Leonardo Márquez. The engagement is sometimes identified as the Battle of Puente de Márquez.
