Antonio Carboni was founded on October 14, 1896, upon the founding of a railway station operated by the Southern Railway Company. The town was established on the lands of an estancia responsible for dairy production owned by a landowner who gave the town its name. [2] The laying out of the town began in 1916. [3]
In 1928, a church, led by architect Alejandro Bustillo, was constructed in the center of the town, inspired by an abandoned church of the type in Italy. [4] In 1963, the church was elevated to the status of a parish and assumed the name of Sagrada Familia. In 2000, the church was declared a cultural site by the Argentine government. [5]
