Bagé, Administrative center in Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil.

The municipality of Bagé spans across 4,096 square kilometers of rolling hills and grasslands in southern Brazil, near the Uruguayan border.

Founded in 1811, Bagé gained strategic importance during regional conflicts, experiencing occupations by Uruguayan and Argentinian forces in 1825 and 1827.
