History & geography

History

In 1925, a local rancher, Dona Carolina Viera da Mota, donated lands to build a future settlement. In the same year a chapel covered with palm fronds was built. Soon, other houses (huts) were built and the settlement was called Bom Jesus. In 1953, it was made a district of Goiatuba, becoming a municipality in 1963.
