Parobé, Industrial municipality in Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil.

Located at an elevation of 13 meters, Parobé extends across 108.65 square kilometers in the southern region of Rio Grande do Sul state.

The town originated around a railway station in the 1830s, initially as a large farm, before German colonizers arrived in 1846.

The former railway station building in the central square has been converted into a museum, preserving the local heritage.
