July 1 in Argentina

Architect Day

Architect's Day is celebrated on July 1 because on this date, but in 1985, the International Union of Architects was created. And although the organization moved the date to the first of October a few years later, in our country it was decided to keep the original date.

Chemical Engineer Day

On the other hand, the Day of the Chemical Engineer is celebrated on this date because on a day like this the first course taught at the Faculty of Chemical Engineering of Santa Fe began; the first institution to offer this career within the country and throughout South America. Therefore, this date was set with the intention of remembering this historical event for science and education in Argentina.

Historian's Day

Finally, the origin of the Historian's Day dates back to July 1, 1812 when, through the decree of the First Triumvirate, it was established that the events that occurred during the May Revolution would be in writing. This meant the birth of historiography in the country and the perpetuation of the memory of the heroes. Finally, in 2002, the National Congress established that all the country's historians would be celebrated on this date.
