Franco da Rocha

Franco da Rocha sits on the Juqueri River in São Paulo state, Brazil, where Greater São Paulo gives way to hills and protected open land. The municipality is closely associated with Francisco Franco da Rocha, the psychiatrist whose name it bears and who helped establish the Hospital do Juquery in 1898. The former hospital area and its surroundings remain central to the city’s identity, while Juquery State Park protects cerrado vegetation, revealing a less urban side of the metropolitan region.
