Criciúma in Brazil was founded on January 6, 1880, by Italian immigrants. Europe, especially Portugal, influences the architecture of Brazil. Historically, it dates back to 1500, when Pedro Cabral discovered Brazil. Portuguese colonial architecture was the first wave of architecture to go to Brazil. In the 18th century, during the time of the Empire, Brazil followed European trends and adopted Neoclassical, Baroque, and Gothic Revival architecture. The same influences are seen in Criciúma too.
