Gartental is a place in the Río Negro department in Uruguay and is located near San Javier , to which it is also politically assigned. Gartental was founded in 1951 by Mennonites from West Prussia , Danzig and Russia - by subdividing the former "Brabancia" estate, 435 people could initially be accommodated. On the deep, alluvial land of the Río Uruguay and the Río Negro, wheat, barley, oats, sugar beet and maize are grown in addition to dairy farming.
