Altônia, Municipality in Paraná, Brazil
Altônia is a municipality in the state of Paraná, located in southern Brazil where agricultural areas surround a compact urban center. The landscape shows a mix of farming land and built-up zones typical of smaller Brazilian towns.
The municipality was established in 1953 when Italian and Polish immigrants began settling in this region of southern Brazil. Their communities shaped the early growth and character of the place.
Agricultural fairs in Altônia bring together local farmers to display their produce, strengthening community bonds through shared traditions and celebrations.
The town connects to other cities across the state through regional roads and offers standard municipal services for visitors. Travel here is mainly by car since it is a smaller administrative center.
The name comes from the Latin word 'altus' meaning high, referring to the geographical elevation of the place. This classical root is an uncommon choice for a Brazilian town founded by European immigrants.
