Silvânia

There was an influx of gold miners; with them, it was brought a statue of Nosso Senhor of Bonfim.

Agricultural data 2006 Silvânia is home to two of the most important schools in the 20th century in Goiás, Instituto Auxiliadora and Ginásio Anchieta.

Monuments from the 18th century, century-old houses, possible archeological and remains of the bandeirante and Black colonizations are some of the attractions.

Unlike many cities in the state of Goiás, Silvânia has a long history, beginning in 1774 when miners coming from Santa Luzia, present-day Luziânia, found gold in the region.

In 1943 Bonfim was renamed to Silvânia in tribute to a local figure, Vicente Miguel da Silva.
