Carmópolis de Minas, Administrative division in Minas Gerais, Brazil.

Carmópolis de Minas extends across 400 square kilometers of land at an elevation of 852 meters above sea level in southeastern Brazil.

The region transformed from indigenous Carijós, Goianazes, and Cataguás territories to Portuguese settlements in 1700, with the first church construction starting in 1807.

The municipality celebrates its heritage through regional music performances, traditional Minas Gerais cuisine, and year-round community festivals.

The municipality connects to major cities via paved highways and provides various accommodation options from local guesthouses to standard hotels.

The name change from Oliveira to Carmópolis de Minas in 1948 reflects the municipal dedication to Nossa Senhora do Carmo, the patron saint.
