Serrinha, Municipality in northeastern Bahia, Brazil.

Serrinha is a municipality in northeastern Bahia situated at an elevation of around 445 meters above sea level. The town spreads across approximately 583 square kilometers and sits about 175 kilometers from Salvador.

The Cariri indigenous people first inhabited this region long before Portuguese colonizers arrived in the early 17th century. Their arrival marked the beginning of cattle routes being established through the area.

The municipality's identity centers on Roman Catholic traditions, with the Diocese of Serrinha serving as a key spiritual institution. Annual celebrations like Holy Week and Patron Saint festivals shape the rhythm of community life.

The climate here is warm and humid year-round, with temperatures typically ranging between 21 and 33 degrees Celsius. Rainfall comes regularly throughout the year, keeping the landscape green and supporting agriculture.

Local lore tells of three Portuguese brothers who discovered a water source in 1745 during a severe drought. The brothers found it after their dog began acting strangely and led them to the spot.
