HistoryThe history of Aparecida do Rio Doce as a municipality is recent as it was elevated to city status in 1993. The name derives from the patron saint of Brazil, Our Lady Aparecida, and the most important river of the region, the Rio Doce, which limits the urban area on the south and flows north to south to eventually join the Rio Claro.
