Serrinha, Municipality in northeastern Bahia, Brazil.

Located 175 kilometers from Salvador, Serrinha extends across 583 square kilometers of land at an elevation of 445 meters above sea level.

The region was first inhabited by Cariri indigenous people before Portuguese colonizers arrived in the early 17th century to establish cattle routes.

The municipality maintains strong religious traditions through the Roman Catholic Diocese of Serrinha and celebrates annual events including Holy Week and Patron Saint festivals.

The temperature in Serrinha ranges from 21.4°C to 33.2°C throughout the year, with an annual precipitation of 774.3 millimeters.

Three Portuguese brothers discovered a water source near the area in 1745 after their dog exhibited unusual behavior during a severe drought period.
