Armero-Guayabal is a municipality located in the department of Tolima, Colombia. The town was established after the tragic 1985 Armero disaster, when the original town of Armero was destroyed by a volcanic mudflow (lahar) from the eruption of Nevado del Ruiz volcano. This devastating event led to the loss of over 20,000 lives and the complete burial of the former town.

The new settlement, Armero-Guayabal, was built nearby to house survivors and continue the legacy of the region. The area is characterized by its agricultural activities, particularly rice cultivation, and serves as an important reminder of both natural disaster awareness and community resilience. The town maintains several memorials and museums dedicated to preserving the memory of the 1985 tragedy while focusing on rebuilding and moving forward.
