Valente, Municipal administrative center in Bahia, Brazil

The municipality extends across 384 square kilometers of land in northeastern Bahia, with a population of approximately 28,800 residents.

The town received its name from a bull that drowned in a local water reservoir, leading to the establishment of the municipality in 1958.

The Casa Brasil cultural center accommodates 320 spectators and hosts performances by local storytellers, singers, and theater groups throughout the year.

The municipality maintains a medium-sized hospital, educational institutions including FATECBA college, and sports facilities for community activities.
