Goioerê

Goioerê is a municipality in Paraná state, situated across fertile agricultural lands in the Centro Ocidental Paranaense region. The town spreads over flat terrain shaped by river systems and marked by extensive farming activity.

The municipality was established on March 28, 1951, developing from a small agricultural settlement into an administrative center. This growth reflected the agricultural development of the region and its expanding role in state commerce.

The name Goioerê comes from the Kaingang indigenous language and means 'field of water', showing how the town's identity connects to the rivers and wetlands that shape the surrounding area.

The town offers basic services including schools, healthcare facilities, and road connections to larger cities throughout Paraná state. The flat landscape makes navigation straightforward, and proximity to main highways facilitates getting around.

The Goioerê River flows through the region as a tributary of the Piquiri River and supplies water for extensive agricultural fields. Visitors can observe how this river system sustains the farming landscape and provides irrigation for diverse crops.
