San Juan was Not the First Capital City. Juan Ponce de León established the first European settlement on the island 1508, on what is known as Caparra – roughly 4 miles (6.4 km) south of Old San Juan. Spanish settlers called Caparra, the island's first capital, La Ciudad de Puerto Rico (the city of Puerto Rico). Ponce de León's grand ambitions for the settlement collapsed due to the capital's vulnerability to Taino attacks. Caparra was abandoned between 1519 and 1521, and the capital was moved to what is now Old San Juan. You can see the ruins of Ponce de León's house in Caparra (located in Guaynabo county) as well as the small Museum of the Conquest and Colonization of Puerto Rico.
