Não-Me-Toque

Não-Me-Toque (literally Don't-Touch-Me in Portuguese) is a Brazilian municipality located in the state of Rio Grande do Sul.

The city's current territory was only explored and occupied when Portuguese descendants established their farms on the place, in the second decade of the 19th century.

[2] There is no exact information of the name's origins, but there are two theories: the abundance of the Dasyphyllum spinescens plant, which name is "touch-me-not" in Portuguese; or the establishment of the farm "Fazenda Não-Me-Toque", founded on July 20, 1885.

[3] Because of the constant humiliation the citizens of the city suffered because of the name, it was renamed Campo Real (Royal Field) in December 1971, until it was changed back after a plebiscite in April 1977.

[4] Não-Me-Toque is located in the region of the Planalto Médio, in the micro-region of the Alto Jacuí, Rio Grande do Sul.
