Videira

Videira is an agricultural municipality in Santa Catarina located at 750 meters above sea level, surrounded by vineyards and gentle hills. The landscape shapes the town's character, with rural areas and farming land defining how the place looks and feels.

The settlement began in 1918 as Vila do Rio das Pedras, founded by Italian and German immigrants who initially split into two communities. It became officially known as Videira in 1944 and grew into the municipality it is today.

The city carries a strong wine-making identity, with local celebrations and grape festivals that reflect the importance of vineyards to community life. Walking through town, you will notice how deeply this agricultural heritage shapes daily traditions and local pride.

The Angelo Ponzoni Airport links the city to regional destinations, while Waldemar Kleinubing bus terminal offers ground transportation options. Visitors will find that having a vehicle helps explore the scattered vineyards and surrounding countryside more easily.

The local climate experiences around 350 hours annually of cold temperatures, creating unusual conditions in Brazil for growing certain fruits and wines. This natural advantage allows the cultivation of crops that struggle in warmer parts of the country.
