The municipality of Campo Bom (57,169 inhabitants in 2004) is located 50 km
north of Porto Alegre.
The first official bike path in South America was set
up in Campo Bom; covering now 18 km, the paths connect business parks and
residential areas.
Campo Bom ("Good Field") was named by tropeiros
conveying cattle from the hinterland to Porto Alegre, who used to stop in the
fertile pastures of the area.
Campo Bom was settled in 1826 by German
colonists, who erected in 1828 the first Evangelic church in southern Brazil.
The first pastor, Cristian Klingelhoefer, and his son, Herrmann, joined the
Ragamuffin Revolution, being killed in a fighting with the imperial troops.
Grapevine cultivation was introduced to Rio Grande do Sul and, some say, to
Brazil, in 1826 by an Italian wine-grower, João Baptista Órsi. Emperor Peter I
ordered the President of the Province of São Pedro to offer him plots where he
would produce wines "of the same quality as those produced in Europe". Using
grapevine stocks imported from Italy, Órsi soon produced quality wines of the
Reno type.
Campo Bom was once the 2nd district of the municipality of São
Leopoldo, in spite of having no territorial connection with it. The municipality
of Bom Campo was established by State Law No. 3,707 promulgated on 31 January
1959 and inaugurated on 6 June 1959.
The industrialist Cláudio Enio
Strassburger initiated in 1967 shoe industry, a main source of income for Campo
Bom, duly represented on the municipal coat of arms.

Clube 15 de Novembro originates in the establishment of Sociedade Concórdia
on 3 October 1917, as the merger of three existing culture and sports clubs:
- Sociedade de Canto, a choir.
- Sociedade Alemã de Atiradores (Deutscher
Schüetzen Verein), the German shooting society established on 3 March 1893.
-
Esporte Clube 15 de Novembro, a football club established on 15 November 1911 in
the Vetter shoe-making company.
On 12 April 1943, Esporte Clube 15 de
Novembro became independent from Sociedade Concórdia. Esporte Clube 15 de
Novembro and Sociedade Concórdia merged again on 30 April 1975 to form Clube 15
de Novembro.
