Salgueiro, Municipality in Sertão Pernambucano, Brazil
Salgueiro is a town in the semi-arid interior of Pernambuco state. It sits in a landscape shaped by the Terra Nova River and surrounded by scrubland vegetation typical of this region.
The town developed as an administrative center during Brazil's inland expansion in Pernambuco. This role shaped how settlements grew throughout the semi-arid interior.
The Catholic Diocese has shaped the town's identity and remains central to how the community gathers and celebrates together.
The town sits inland and connects well to regional roads, making it reachable by car. Local markets show what farmers grow and trade in this area.
The area has become known for growing onions and cotton in ways adapted to the dry climate. These crops remain central to local trade networks.
