Guaporé, Rio Grande do Sul
Guaporé, Rio Grande do Sul, Italian immigrant settlement in Serra Gaúcha, Brazil.
Guaporé is a municipality in the hills and valleys of Serra Gaúcha, where the landscape rolls between lower and higher elevations. The region is known mainly for jewelry and lingerie manufacturing, which shape the local economy and daily work life.
The colony was founded in 1892 and drew settlers from the surrounding region who sought new opportunities in agriculture and trade. The population grew rapidly in the decades that followed, establishing the area as a stable settlement.
The town preserves Italian traditions through its architecture and religious celebrations that shape the rhythm of community life. Residents speak Talian, a Venetian dialect, which remains part of daily conversation and local identity.
The town is easy to reach and suitable for exploring local craftsmanship and architectural traditions through casual visits. There are several ways to see workshops and collections on display, where you can watch artisans at work.
The jewelry and lingerie industry began here in 1907 when a family opened the first workshop, starting a tradition that would shape the region. This craft activity transformed the place into one of Brazil's major manufacturing centers decades later.
