Municipality

The municipality of Cambará do Sul (6,545 inhabitants; 12,126 ha) is located 200 km north-east of Porto Alegre. The municipality is composed of the districts of Cambará do Sul (seat), Osvaldo Kroeff and Bom Retiro.
Cambará do Sul is among the Brazilian places with the coldest winter. A temperature of -32.1C was recorded on 31 July 1978.

Cambará do Sul emerged as a donation made by Úrsula Maria da Conceição, member of a famous local family, who offered 20 ha on 17 April 1864 to erect a chapel dedicated to St. Joseph.
São José do Campo Bom was elevated on 23 December 1902 to the 4th district of the newly established municipality of São Francisco de Paula. At the end of the 1930s, the district was granted the rank of "vila" and its name, already used by another municipality, was changed to Vila Cambará, a name based on common lantana ("cambará", _Lantana camara_ L.) growing profusely in the area.
The municipality of Cambará do Sul was established on 23 December 1963 and inaugurated on 1965.
