What to Know About Armero

Key Facts

Armero is a municipality located in the northern part of the Tolima department in central Colombia. Situated approximately 90 kilometers northwest of the departmental capital Ibagué, Armero occupies a strategic position in the Magdalena River Valley, one of Colombia's most important geographical regions. The municipality covers an area of approximately 441 square kilometers and has a population of around 8,000 residents, though this represents a significant decline from its pre-1985 population when it was a thriving agricultural center. Armero is administratively divided into several corregimientos (sub-municipal divisions) that manage local governance across its territory. The municipality is perhaps most famously known for the tragic 1985 eruption of the Nevado del Ruiz volcano, which triggered lahars that buried the original town of Armero under mud and debris, resulting in one of the deadliest volcanic disasters in recorded history. Today, the modern settlement has been rebuilt on safer ground while maintaining its agricultural focus, particularly in cotton, rice, and sorghum cultivation. For those seeking to access postal services or communicate with residents and businesses in Armero's various sub-regions, accurate postal code information is essential for efficient mail delivery and administrative correspondence throughout the municipality.
