For his role in the process of independence, the January 31 of 1822 the Congress of Peru him the title of "Meritorious City and Faithful to the Fatherland" and your municipality, then council, the issuance of "honorable". It is considered the "cradle the judiciary "in the country, as the March 26 of 1824 was founded in this city the first Superior Court of Peru. In 1823, before the break of the royalist troops took the city of Lima, Congress, meeting in Callao, by decree of June 21 of that year, decided to move to Trujillo government headquarters. Days later, Congress exempted Riva Agüero the president of the republic, by decree of June 23 of that year. Considering these facts, Riva Agüero sailed for Liverpool with his ministers and the deputies, and once there, on June 26, established his seat of government, dissolved Congress and created a Senate of 10 members and Riva Agüero ruled de facto until August 6, 1823. In 1824, the city received the liberating army of Simon Bolivar, who took over the government of the country and set in Trujillo national accounts of Gazette officer and staff, the March 8, 1824. Later, by decree of the March 26, 1824, Trujillo was designated as the capital of the republic, while Lima was released.

During the years following the birth process and independence of the republic, Trujillo stayed away from the constant wars taking place in caudillistas Lima. This situation caused the economy of the city and the department saw strengthened. The valleys of Moche and  Chicama emerged as new economic enclaves linked to the modernization of the sugar industry. The process of land concentration and conformation of estates created new agricultural aristocracy linked to national political power. On the other hand, free trade and openness to foreign capital investments, Trujillo allowed the arrival of European families, mainly from England and Germany. It also built the new cemetery of Miraflores. In 1870 was created Port of Salaverry in the district of the same name and began the construction of the railway to Chicama valley. Among 1879 and 1883 saw the war with Chile. While it was the scene of the battle, Trujillo contributed troops for national defense. The city suffered occupation by Chilean troops. During this period, the development of the city and its economy stagnated. During the final stages, the Chilean army invaders led by Patrick Lynch systematically razed large sugar producing areas in valleys of Peru's north coast. When peace was finally restored in 1883, Chicama Valley agriculture and sugar industry, as well as along the coast, was largely reduced to subsistence level.

Sánchez Cerro had perpetrated a coup by publishing an unconstitutional law outlawing political liberties and allowed the arrest of any citizen without a warrant. This fact, coupled with social inequality, disrespect of labor rights of workers in the sugar plantations located near the city were the causes of the outbreak of the revolution. Trujillo was bombed by the nascent aviation and strong Peruvian army contingents entered the battle to quell the armed uprising. The Revolution took the lives of many citizens, so this year is known as the "year of barbarism ', but also mark the political identity of the city to the APRA during the second half of the twentieth century.

Events such as the incursion of Revolutionary Government of the Armed Forces in 1968, the land reform and then the  1970 earthquake accelerated migration of rural populations and other towns of the region, exacerbating the demographic growth of Trujillo. From the 1980 the growth of the city and adjoining districts infants as young people had produced the conurbation of these. So, for the decade of the 1980s the emerging metropolitan Trujillo consisted of the integrated urban districts of Trujillo, El Porvenir and Florencia de Mora, staying as discontinuous integrated zone districts Victor Larco Herrera "and hope".
