Palmeira, Agricultural municipality in Paraná, Brazil.

Located at an elevation of 883 meters, Palmeira extends across 1,465 square kilometers of land in southern Brazil's Paraná state.

The municipality of Palmeira, established in 1897, separated from Ponta Grossa and became a settlement point for Russian-German immigrants arriving in 1878.

The Witmarsum Colony, founded by German Mennonites in 1951, maintains agricultural traditions and produces dairy products under the Cancela brand name.

Two major highways, BR-376 connecting Curitiba to northern Paraná and BR-277 leading to Foz do Iguaçu, intersect through Palmeira.

The Ponte dos Papagaios bridge and Casa Fazenda Cancela museum preserve the architectural heritage of this Brazilian agricultural region.
