Lapa, Historical municipality in Paraná, Brazil.
Lapa extends across agricultural lands at 871 meters above sea level, displaying traditional architecture and streets from the nineteenth century.
The municipality gained recognition during the 1894 Cerco da Lapa battle, where local forces resisted for 26 days against General Gumercindo Saraiva's troops.
The annual Lapa Film Festival in November brings together cinema productions that utilize the municipality's preserved nineteenth-century architecture as filming locations.
Travelers reach Lapa by taking the BR-476 highway from Curitiba, covering 70 kilometers with one toll station along the route.
The Monument to the Tropeiro by Poty Lazzaroto stands at the entrance, commemorating the merchants who transported goods before modern transportation systems.
