The municipality of Lagos de Três Cantos (1,649 inhabitants in 2016; 13,864 ha)
is located 300 km of Porto Alegre.
Lagos de Três Cantos was established
around 1800 by German colonists who settled near a triangular lake used by the
travelers as a landmark - and still the town's landmark. The settlement that
developed around the lake was named Lagos de Três Cantos, Three Corner's Lake.
