Serra Talhada, Administrative municipality in Pernambuco, Brazil

The municipality of Serra Talhada extends across 2,980 square kilometers of land in northeastern Brazil, maintaining an elevation of 430 meters above sea level.

Originally named Villa Bella, the municipality received its current name Serra Talhada in 1856, referring to the distinctive hill formation that appears cut in half.

The municipality preserves the traditional dance of xaxado, connected to the regional Cangaceiros groups who shaped the local cultural expressions through movement and rhythm.

Serra Talhada operates Santa Magalhães Airport and maintains extensive agricultural activities, focusing on the production of corn and beans throughout the region.

The Pajeú River serves as the primary water source for the municipality, supporting the hyperxerophytic Caatinga vegetation that characterizes the local landscape.
