Campos Novos (Campos Novos)

Main ethnic origins are Italian, German, Portuguese, Polonese and Drovers.
The Kaingang, an Indigenous people of southern Brazil, were the first inhabitants of the region.
The construction of the railway São Paulo - Rio Grande do Sul and the passages of the cattle drovers in the region mobilized many immigrants. Those migrations caused the creation of many villages at the Rio de Peixe river, like Bom Retiro, Capinzal and Videira. The arrival of the Italian and German settlers induced commercial and industrial activities in the 19th and 20th centuries.
Therefore, the city has a rich cultural diversity. It has even a community of descendants of African slaves.
