Tourism information on Sagay City
Founded in 1860 by Teniente Francisco Rodriguez and Basilio
Cordova in the mouth of the river known today as Bulanon River, this place
was called Arguelles. Later, by the order of the Spanish Governor, the town
proper was transferred to the Old Sagay site known as Pueblo de Magallanes.
In 1906, during the administration of the second President
Quintin Katalbas, the name of the town was officially changed to Sagay. The
name was taken from the semi-spherical shell called “sigay.”
After World War II, the seat of government was transferred
to the present site, Dalusan, because of its accessibility to land
transportation.
In 1995, the Hon. Congressman of the 2nd District Alfredo G.
Marañon, Jr. authored House Bill No. 6543- An Act Converting the
Municipality of Sagay in the Province of Negros Occidental into a component
City to be known as the City of Sagay. In June 11, 1996, His Excellency
Pres. Fidel V. Ramos signed into law Republic Act 8192, which gave birth to
the City of Sagay.
