Salcedo is the capital city located in the Hermanas Mirabal Province of the Dominican Republic. It serves as a significant historical site within the region.
The city is notable as the birthplace of the Mirabal sisters, who are recognized as Dominican heroines for their role in the struggle against the dictator Rafael Trujillo. A local museum commemorates three of the sisters and was maintained by the surviving sister, Bélgica (Dedé) Mirabal, until her death in February 2014.
