In pre-Columbian times the region was inhabited primarily by Otomí and Nahuas people. Founded in 1721 by Franciscan friars, the village of San José de los Amoles was under the order of the congress of Guanajuato given the present name of Cortázar in 1857 after Luis Cortazar y Rábago, a Mexican patriot and leader of Mexico's war of independence against Spain.

The municipal president of the city and its microregions is Elías Ruiz Ramírez of the National Action Party, since 2009.[4]
