Santana do Livramento

Santana do Livramento extends along the border with Uruguay, creating a connected urban space with Rivera city without physical barriers between them.

The Portuguese established a settlement in 1823 after receiving land grants from the Marquês of Alegrete, leading to the city's formation and development.

The population of over 76,000 residents participates in frequent celebrations that combine Brazilian and Uruguayan traditions throughout the calendar year.

The municipality maintains direct road connections to major Brazilian cities, with an international airport in Rivera serving both countries since 2023.

The international train station, opened in 1912, connected Brazil to Uruguay, enabling rail travel between Rio de Janeiro and Montevideo until its closure.
