The city was officially founded in 1818. Its name is an homage to Saint Joseph and to Feliciano Rodríguez, who accompanied Juan de Garay during the foundation of Santa Fe.

The area is traversed by many streams and punctuated by forests of palm trees, alternating with natural pasture lands which are employed to raise cattle and sheep. The streams and the nearby Guayquiraró River are adequate for fishing.
