Teotônio Vilela, Municipality in Alagoas, Brazil.

Teotônio Vilela covers 297 square kilometers in eastern Alagoas state, with a population of 38,053 residents according to the 2022 census data.

The settlement began in 1955 when a truck with a flat tire started selling food products at kilometer 171 of BR-101, establishing a regular marketplace.

The municipality celebrates two main annual festivals: Santos Reis Day on January 6 and Political Emancipation Day on December 12.

The local government manages an annual budget exceeding 280 million Brazilian reais, allocating resources for public services and infrastructure development.

The area transformed from an impromptu marketplace known as Chã da Planta into an agricultural district named after Senator Teotônio Vilela in 1983.
