June 1889 CE

Bangui is founded by Albert Dolisie and Alfred Uzac on June 26, 1889, in what is at this time the upper reaches of the French Congo, the present-day Congo (Brazzaville).

The original site is six miles (9.7 kilometers) south of the Ubangi rapids.

Its territory is organized first into the territory of the Upper Ubangi (Haut-Oubangui) and later as the separate colony of Ubangi-Shari.
