The municipality of São Sebastião da Amoreira (8,968 inhabitants in 2010;
22,789 ha) is located 375 km north-west of Curitiba.
São Sebastião da
Amoreira originates in the settlement of Amoreira (Mulberry), established after
the split of Fazenda Três Barras. When a church dedicated to St. Sebastian was
built, the place became known as São Sebastião da Amoreira.
The district of
São Sebastião da Amoreira was established, as part of the municipality of Assaí,
by State Law No. 2 promulgated on 10 October 1947. The municipality of Amoreira
was established by State Law No. 790 promulgated on 14 November 1951, to be
renamed to São Sebastião da Amoreira by Municipal Law No. 8 promulgated on 9 May
1964.
