History

The settlement of this region began in 1949 when a group of farmers from Paraná arrived and settled between the Bocaina and Carapuça rivers. In 1953 the town achieved some prosperity and became known as Novo Brasil. In 1958 it became a district of Fazenda Nova. In the same year it was dismembered and made a municipality.
