The municipality of Faxinal do Soturno (6,672 inhabitants; 16,990 ha) is
located 220 km of Porto Alegre. The municipality is composed of the districts of
Faxinal do Soturno and Santos Anjos.
The municipality of Faxinal do
Soturno was established by State Law No. 3,711 promulgated on 12 February 1959,
separating from Cachoeira do Sul.
The odd epithet "Soturno" (Gloomy) refer to
river Soturno. This name of Gloomy River seems today undeserved, since the river
supplies water for rice irrigation and energy production. It is believed that
the river once formed marshes, especially during the rainy season, which were
gloomy and dangerous, therefore the name given to the river.

The flag of Faxinal do Soturno is horizontally divided yellow-red-blue with the
municipal coat of arms in the center.
The lower, blue stripe is twice wider
than the red one but nothing can be concluded on the width of the yellow stripe.
