ITAMBÉ / PE
The district of Itambé was created by Royal Charter of January 6, 1789 and by Provincial Law No. 1,055, of June 6, 1972. Anniversary of Political Emancipation: August 3, 1892.
It was elevated to the category of town by Provincial Law No. 720, of May 20, 1867, - date of creation of the Municipality - separated from Goiana and Nazaré (today Nazaré da Mata); subsequently, on February 4, 1879, by Law No. 1,318, it was classified as August 1892, becoming an autonomous municipality.
According to the bulletin from the Ministry of Labor, Industry and Commerce, nº17, of January 1936, the town of Itambé was installed on February 1, 1938. The name of Itambé was changed to També by state Decree-Law nº235, of December 9 from 1938.
Subsequently, the old name of Itambé was returned by Law No. 7,006, of December 2, 1975 (see official gazette of January 3, 1976), which, as it is original, must be perpetuated. Captain-General André Vidal de Negreiros, one of the restorers of Pernambuco from Dutch rule, established a chapel under the invocation of Nossa Senhora do Desterro, in the territory included in the current municipality, giving the entire land of the then parish to his heritage. By provision of the first bishop of the diocese, Dom Estevam Brioso de Figueiredo, dated January 1789, the Curada Parish Church was elevated, separating itself from the parish, of Goiana, to which it belonged. The old village called exterro, formed around the church, is now almost gone.
By provincial Law No. 1,055, of May 5, 1872, already mentioned, the parish headquarters was transferred from the village of Desterro to Itambé, with the church of Santo Antônio as its headquarters.
Growing. Little by little, the town of Itambé soon became a large population center.
The name Itambé is an indigenous vocabulary, meaning "Sharp Stone", "Whetstone", which were used in lighters, hence, later, also, the name "Fire Stones", a name, alias, because the location in Paraíba is known, which is to the north, whose streets are adjacent to those of the city of Itambé.
Administratively, the municipality is made up of the districts: Itambé (Headquarters), Caricé and Ibiranga. Every year, on August 3rd, Itambé celebrates political emancipation.
