Discover Nova Mutum

Nova Mutum is marked by distinctive memorials, an important gathering place for leisure and socializing, and a recurring market. Those interested in the municipality’s history will encounter the pioneer era in several monuments. Those who would rather focus on community life today can find other points of connection at Lago do Semeador and Feira da Agricultura Familiar. This lets you shape your stay around whether culture, shared experiences, or the market is your priority.

Landmarks and memories of the pioneer era

O Semeador is considered a landmark of Nova Mutum. The statue depicts the biblical figure of the sower and also refers to the pioneering farmers who chose Nova Mutum as their home. The religious image and the history of settlement thus stand side by side: the sower is not only a figure depicted in a statue, but also a symbol associated with the memory of the early farmers. For learning about the municipality, the monument offers a concrete starting point for exploring this local story.

Another memorial is the Monumento Colonizadores de Nova Mutum, erected in 2018. It depicts the married couple José Aparecido Ribeiro and Hilda Strenger Ribeiro. The Monumento Locomotiva a Vapor honors the pioneers and colonizers who made Nova Mutum a prosperous municipality. The three monuments emphasize different things: O Semeador draws on a biblical motif and the history of the pioneering farmers, the Monumento Colonizadores depicts a married couple identified by name, and the locomotive pays tribute to pioneers and colonizers. If you are interested in how a place came into being, these names and motifs can be understood as different ways of engaging with the memory of Nova Mutum.

Casa do Artesão de Nova Mutum is also part of the municipality’s cultural character. It is a cultural point of reference and welcomes visitors from various places, including abroad. Alongside the monuments, it offers another named point of reference for cultural encounters. This variety may be of interest when planning your trip if you would like to discover Nova Mutum’s cultural side as well as its memorials.

Leisure at Lago do Semeador and market days

Lago do Semeador is one of Nova Mutum’s most important places for leisure and socializing. It attracts families, people who play sports, and tourists, and is also described as a landmark and a postcard image. The lake thus plays a role in community life and provides a striking image of the municipality. For families, it is particularly relevant that they are specifically among the groups the place attracts; the lake also appeals to visitors looking for sports activities or opportunities to socialize.

Feira da Agricultura Familiar offers a different glimpse into local life. It takes place on Wednesdays and Sundays. If visiting the market is one of your travel interests, you can take these two days of the week into account when planning your stay. The market and the lake represent different reasons to visit: the market’s regular weekly schedule provides a specific guide for choosing your travel dates, while the lake is described as a gathering place for leisure and socializing.
