The village of Campana was officially created in 1875. It was on July 6th, 1885 that Campana Partido was created as an offshoot of the Exaltación de la Cruz Partido.

Campana has been since late 19th century and to a lesser degree today an important shipyard and port for passengers traveling to the remote Ibicuy Islands of the Paraná Delta.
