Três Coroas

Três Coroas is a municipality in Rio Grande do Sul that stretches across an elevated region in southern Brazil. The area is crossed by several rivers and waterways that shape the landscape and support farming throughout the territory.

The area began with small settlements along the Verde River in the 1700s. It gained its official status as a municipality during the mid-20th century.

The name Três Coroas refers to a chapel dedicated to three sacred hearts, reflecting the deep Catholic tradition that shapes daily life in the region.

Visitors find a region marked by farming activities and local business enterprises spread throughout the area. The elevated terrain requires some preparation, especially when exploring rural parts of the region.

The natural waterways run through the landscape in such varied ways that they form their own irrigation system for farms. This network of rivers and streams is so important to local agriculture that it serves as the economic foundation of the whole area.
