Our Lady of Luján Chapel, part of the Diocese of Azul, was erected by Carlos Ruiz Santana and the Neighborhood Commission. The laying and blessing of the foundation stone was on May 19, 1929, and the inauguration and celebration of the first religious building in the area was on January 25, 1931.
Every year, during the month of May, the community pays homage to the Virgin with a procession that leaves from Las Flores to the rural area, to later celebrate the traditional mass and blessing of the pilgrims.
Railroad Station
The Rosas station was inaugurated in July 1872, when the F.C. del Sud enabled its extension from the Salado station (nowadays General Belgrano) to Las Flores and it is located at kilometer 192 from Plaza Constitución.
At present, the old station is the site of the municipal delegation and is the scene of various local celebrations such as the Fiesta del Cordero Deshuesado (Boneless Lamb Festival).
