Penha District, Administrative district in East Zone of São Paulo, Brazil
The Penha district spans 43.41 square kilometers and contains residential areas, commercial centers, religious buildings, and green spaces within São Paulo's eastern region.
The first official reference to Penha dates back to September 5, 1668, when Mateus Nunes de Siqueira received land rights from captain Agostinho de Figueiredo.
On September 8, the district celebrates Nossa Senhora da Penha with religious ceremonies, processions, and community festivals that begin in late August.
Transportation in the district connects through the Red Line 3 of São Paulo Metro and the Penha Terminal, which serves multiple bus routes across the city.
During the 1924 Revolution, Penha became the temporary seat of São Paulo state government when President Carlos de Campos operated from a modified train car.
