About the Flag

The municipality of Piên (12,746 inhabitants in 2019; 25,479 ha) is located on the border with Santa Catarina, 100 km south of Curitiba. The municipality is composed of the districts of Piên (seat) and Trigolândia.

Piên was settled in the 1845s by the Vieira family, coming from Morretes. The early colonists noticed the abundance of hawks, whose chirping ("piar") inspired the name of the ne settlement. Historian Manuel Machuca, however, claims that "piên" means "a heart" in Tupi-Guarani.
