Barreiros is a municipality in Pernambuco state in northeastern Brazil, serving as the local administrative center. The town occupies a settled area with basic services and infrastructure typical of regional towns in this part of the country.

The municipality emerged from colonial settlements in Pernambuco and became a formal administrative center under Brazil's federal system. This transformation shaped how the town is organized and functions today.
