Located at coordinates 10°00'10"S and 42°30'14"W, Pilão Arcado extends across 11,731 square kilometers with a population of 35,175 inhabitants.
The municipality originated in 1810 when Portuguese settlers from the Guerreiro and Bernardo families established themselves in this northern region of Bahia.
The region maintains strong connections to its indigenous heritage through the influence of Mocoase and Acoroase groups who first inhabited these lands.
The municipality operates in the UTC-3 time zone and connects to major cities through Barra Airport, located 180 kilometers from the administrative center.
Between 1842 and 1848, the area experienced territorial conflicts between two prominent families that concluded with the death of the last Guerreiro heir.
