Capim Grosso, Municipality in northeastern Bahia, Brazil.

Capim Grosso is a municipality in northeastern Bahia that covers a land area of about 460 square kilometers. The town sits at an elevated location and maintains several administrative offices serving the local population.

This municipality was founded in 1985 when it separated from the larger city of Jacobina. The creation marked an important turning point in the region's administrative history.

The residents celebrate yearly festivals that reflect the meeting of indigenous, African, and European traditions in their community. These events shape the social life and bring people together throughout the year.

The area operates on UTC-3 time and has a clear administrative structure with several offices and public services. Visitors should take time to explore local facilities and adjust to the higher elevation.

Despite its moderate size, the area has a specialized postal system with multiple postal code ranges that connect different neighborhoods throughout the municipality. This detail reveals a level of organizational sophistication in a regional town.
