Vila Velha State Park, State park in Ponta Grossa, Brazil.

The park gained official status as the first State Park in Paraná through State Law 1,292 in 1953, marking a milestone in regional conservation.
The territory contains traces of indigenous Tupi settlements, preserving the connection between natural landscapes and early human populations in Brazil.
