Known for its warm Mediterranean climate, Linares is a beautiful Chilean town that stands out within the Maule Region. This city was founded on May 23, 1794 under the mandate of the viceroy of Peru Ambrosio O'Higgins, the town received its name in honor of Francisco de la Matta Linares who commanded the Concepción Intendancy at that time. The town of Linares was established on 1,500 hectares that were expropriated from the Estancia de Pilocoyán.

Most of the commune is located in the Central Valley, bordering to the north with Villa Alegre and Yerbas Buenas, to the west with San Javier, to the south with Longaví and to the east, with Colbún.

Initially, the center of Linares was made up of a handful of blocks, located around the Plaza de Armas, then they became eighty blocks, according to the typical grid of the initial urban structure of Latin American cities.

The south and particularly the southeast of the city is already reaching the banks of the Ancoa River. The north side has developed a little less, in terms of built-up area, but it has been characterized by witnessing the construction of condominiums and high-cost houses, some of them surrounded by originally agricultural land and now converted into households. This trend is occurring mainly along the roads to Yerbas Buenas and Colbún.
