Blumenau is a city in the Santa Catarina region of southern Brazil. Founded in 1850 by 17 German pioneer travelers, its German heritage can be seen in some of the fine architecture still remaining and carefully preserved here in the city. Blumenau is located in a valley and is known to suffer from flooding from time to time. The earliest flood was recorded in 1880, and the worst flood of modern times was in 2008.
