history

Older plan of the town of Vargem Grande do Sul, drawn by Geraldo Pistelli.

Since the 17th century, the territories north and west of São Paulo were dominated by Bandeirantes , the area was then divided into Sesmarias , including the Sesmaria Várzea Grande and the Fazenda Várzea Grande , which by 1874 already led to 60 hamlets. The city cited September 26, 1874 as the founding date when a Father José Valeriano de Souza, vicar from São João da Boa Vista , established a parish on the banks of the Rio Verde. In the province of São Paulo , Provincial Law No. 14 of February 18, 1888 established the Distrito de Vargem Grande and subordinated it to the city of São João da Boa Vista. The district received political independence by hiving off as Município de Vargem Grande by law on December 1, 1921, and independence came into force on February 24, 1922. On November 30, 1944, the place was renamed Vargem Grande do Sul , because there is still a place of the same name in Maranhão.
