Charqueadas, Municipality in eastern Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil
The municipality spans over 214 square kilometers along the Jacuí River, featuring residential areas and industrial zones in the Porto Alegre metropolitan region.
The territory gained importance during the 19th century as a meat processing center, where workers prepared dried and salted beef for commercial distribution.
The municipal library, named after Professor Vera Maria Gauss, maintains collections of regional literature and educational materials for public access.
The municipality provides digital services through its official portal, enabling residents to process property taxes, business licenses, and access public service information.
The name derives from meat processing facilities that produced charque, a preservation method that transformed the regional economy in southern Brazil.
