Castro is Chile's third most prepared city in continued with nearness. Rodrigo de Quiroga as the temporary administrative pioneer of Chile in 1567 pushed a fight drove by his tyke in-law Captain Martín Ruiz de Gamboa to vanquish Chiloé Island, developing the city of Castro there, and pacifying its occupants, the Cuncos. From its setting up on 12 February 1576 until the point that 1767 Castro was the administrative point of convergence of Chiloé Island.

In 1594 Castro had 8,000 inhabitants a vast segment of whom were agriculturists. Up to the mid of the seventeenth century the town was ravaged by Dutch privateers a couple of times. In 1767, in the midst of the period of the Bourbon Reforms that hoped to modernize the Spanish Empire, Chiloé was segregated from the General Captaincy of Chile to which it had already had a place and made a prompt subject of the Viceroyalty of Peru.
