Few cities in Rio Grande do Sul have a history as closely tied to German immigration as Montenegro. Set on the Caí River in the Vale do Caí, the city developed from nineteenth-century settlement colonies and river trade, a past still reflected in local traditions and older central streets. The Caí flows south toward the Guaíba, linking this agricultural district with the Porto Alegre metropolitan area. Montenegro is also associated with citrus growing, particularly bergamot mandarins, which are central to regional farming and food culture.
