Padre Bernardo

Padre Bernardo is an agricultural municipality in Goiás characterized by open grasslands and gentle terrain. The landscape consists mainly of pastures and cultivated fields that define the rural character of the region.

The settlement began as cattle ranches established along the Maranhão River in the previous century. These ranches relied on the region's natural grasslands for livestock operations.

The residents here, called padre-bernardenses, stay connected to their farming heritage through local festivals and community gatherings. These celebrations shape social life and show how much the community values its ties to the land.

The city hall is located on Rua Getúlio Vargas and offers administrative services to residents. Municipal offices operate on weekdays, making it the place to go for official matters.

The region supports about 137,000 cattle on natural pastures, making it one of the state's major livestock centers. This large herd reflects the long tradition and economic importance of cattle raising in the area.
