Schroeder

Schroeder is a municipality in northern Santa Catarina that spreads across rolling countryside and rural landscapes. The region combines agricultural land with small settlements and green spaces that shape the overall setting.

The municipality was founded in 1964 and named after Christian Mathias Schröder, a German senator who promoted colonial settlement projects in the area. This establishment was part of a broader movement of settlement and development across the Santa Catarina region.

Residents honor their German roots through festivals, customs, and religious gatherings that shape community life. These traditions remain visible in how people celebrate and gather together throughout the year.

Visitors find a quiet rural setting with access to local services and administrative facilities throughout the municipality. The best time to explore is during warmer months, when the landscape is greener and the roads are easier to navigate.

The local economy relies heavily on small-scale farming that shapes daily life and the rhythm of the community. This agricultural foundation makes the area interesting for visitors curious about rural production and farming practices.
