About the Flag

The municipality of União da Vitória (58,296 inhabitants in 2021; 72,002 ha) is located on the border with Santa Catarina, here river Iguaçu,, 250 km south-west of Curitiba. Together with Porto União, located across the border, it forms a single urban nucleus known as Iguaçu Twins.

Porto União was settled in 1842 after the discovery of Vau, a section of river Iguaçu with shallow water, suitable for crossing by cattle, and also to embark and disembark when navigating the river. Renamed to Porto União da Vitória in 1855, the town was boosted after the establishment in 1880 of Colonel Amazonas Marcondes, a salt trader from Palmas. The colonel initiated the next year steam navigation on river Iguaçu, transporting cargoes and passengers.
The municipality of União da Vitória was established by Decree No. 564 issued on 24 March 1890. The iron bridge of the São Paulo-Rio Grande do Sul railway, spanning over the Iguaçu, was inaugurated in 1907. In the aftermath of the Contestado War (1912-1916), União da Vitória was split on 5 September 1917; the part of the town allocated to Santa Catarina being renamed to Porto União.
