Chronicles of Linhares
Linhares was founded in 1800 as a small settlement along the Doce River, and its early development was driven by agriculture and trade. Over time, the city has evolved into a significant urban centre in the state of Espirito Santo, with a mix of colonial and modern architecture. Today, Linhares is known for its rich cultural heritage, including its historic downtown area and the nearby Vale do Rio Doce, a region of significant environmental and ecological importance. The city's cultural identity is shaped by its indigenous, African, and European influences, which are reflected in its music, art, and cuisine.

Top Attractions in Linhares
💡 Arrive before 9am for the freshest produce. Try the local requeijão cheese from a stall near the church – it's creamy and cheap.
💡 The volunteer guides often share stories not on the plaques – ask about the 1950s flood that reshaped the town.
💡 Ask the caretaker (usually around in the morning) to unlock the bell tower – the view over the old town is worth the climb.
💡 Go early morning, around 7am, to see more wildlife and avoid the heat. Take insect repellent.
💡 Bring your own water and snacks. The dirt access road is rough – a car with decent ground clearance is best. Weekdays are nearly empty.
