About the Flag

The municipality of Pitanga (30,635 inhabitants in 2018; 166,374 ha) is located 350 km north-west of Curitiba.

Pitanga was named for the nearby Serra de Pitanga, referring to "pitanga", the fruit of the Brazilian cherry ("pitangueira"). The place was settled in 1914 by Albino Hey, Adão and José Schon, João Berger and Bernando Bassani, coming from Rio de Patos (municipality of Prudentópolis), who were joined four years later by Frederico Repula, Miguel Hulek and Fernando Malko.
The municipality of Pitanga was established by Decree Law No. 199 promulgated on 30 December 1943 and inaugurated on 28 January 1944.
