History of Arta

JuteVilla
In December 1942, British invasion of French Somaliland about 700 British troops and Free French troops occupied the town. Under French colonial rule in 1946, a new housing estate was built. Because of its usually dry and relatively cool weather, Arta was the summer residence of the French and Djiboutian people.

In 2000, peace talks between various factions of the Somali Civil War were held in the city, resulting in the establishment of the Transitional National Government of Somalia.
