History
At the beginning, Cần Đước was a small village located in a peninsula created by the Mương Ông Quỳnh and Rach Ben Ba distributaries. In 1698, the present-day Cần Đước belonged to Phiên Trấn fort. In 1808, it belonged to the town of Phiên An. In the 13th year of Minh Mạng's rule (1832), Cần Đước became part of Phước Lộc county, phủ (old subdivision of a province but larger than a county) Tân An, Gia Định Province. In 1867, Cần Đước became a county itself when Phước Lộc became a phủ. In 1871, Phước Lộc was merged into Chợ Lớn Province.
