Oeiras e São Raimundo Nonato

Oeiras and São Raimundo Nonato are two cities of great historical and cultural importance in Piauí.

Oeiras, the first capital of Piauí, is a city with a well-preserved colonial heritage, with centuries-old churches, mansions and strong religious traditions, such as the Fogaréu Procession during Holy Week. Founded in the 17th century, Oeiras was the seat of Piauí’s government until 1852, when the capital was transferred to Teresina. Its historic centre, especially the Igreja Matriz de Nossa Senhora da Vitória, is one of the most important in the Northeast.

São Raimundo Nonato, meanwhile, is famous for being home to the Serra da Capivara National Park, one of the most important archaeological sites in the world, where some of the oldest cave paintings in the Americas can be found, with remains that could be over 50,000 years old. The park is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and holds fundamental records for the study of human occupation on the continent. The city is also home to the Museum of the American Man, which houses archaeological finds and research into Brazilian prehistory.
