The municipality of Jaborá (3,955 inhabitants in 2018; 19,112 ha) is located
460 km west of Florianópolis.
Jaborá was settled between 1916 and 1919 by
colonists of Italian origin coming from Rio Grande do Sul. Colonization was
managed in the 1920s by the Firmas Colonizadoras no Meio-Oeste Catarinense
(Colonizing Companies of Santa Catarina Midwest), who pushed people to acquire
plots in a region rich in Brazilian pines.
The early settlement was
successively named Rio Bonito, Lajeado Bonito, Sede dos Poyer, and, in 1923, São
Roque for the chapel dedicated to St. Rocco erected that year. Germano Poyer
established in 1920 a sawmill powered by the river, which he subsequently moved
to a more suitable place and powered with a steam engine. Engineer Lauro Rupp
was commissioned in 1922 to design plots and organize urban planning of the
settlement.
The district of Jaborá was established by Law No. 941 promulgated
on 31 December 1943 and inaugurated in January 1944. The municipality of Jaborá
was established by State Law No. 915 promulgated on 11 September 1963,
separating from Joaçaba.
