Sayago is a barrio (neighbourhood or district) of Montevideo, Uruguay.
This barrio borders Conciliación to the northwest, Peñarol - Lavalleja to the northeast, Paso de las Duranas to the southeast and Belvedere to the southwest.
It was founded in 1873 and was declared a "Pueblo" (village) on 10 March 1913 by the Act of Ley N° 4.311.[1] On 1 July 1953, its status was elevated to "Villa" (town) by the Act of Ley N° 11.966.[2] Eventually, it has been integrated to Montevideo.
