Piracicaba (Portuguese pronunciation: [piɾɐsiˈkabɐ] or [piˌɾasiˈkabɐ]) is a city located in the Brazilian state of São Paulo. The population is 404,142 (2019) in an area of 1378.07 km⊃2;.[1] It is at an elevation of 547 m above sea level.
In 1766, Antonio Correa Barbosa, charged with the task of establishing a settlement on the estuary of Piracicaba river, opted for a location about 90 km from it.[6] The settlement was officially founded on August 1, 1767, as a povoação subordinated to the vila of Itu.[2] In 1784, Piracicaba gets emancipated from Itu, becoming a freguesia.[2]
In 1821, the freguesia is promoted to vila, known as Vila Nova da Constituição. In 1856, Vila Nova da Constituição is promoted to city status and in 1877 it is officially named "Piracicaba", following a law by the then councilman and future Brazilian president Prudente de Morais.[2]
In 1944, the city was made the seat of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Piracicaba.[7
