The municipality of Rosário do Ivaí (4,595 inhabitants in 2021; 37,125 ha) is 
located 400 km north-west of Curitiba.
Rosário do Ivaí was named for a 
plant common in the region, known as biurá, whose ripe fruit was once used to 
make rosaries.
The district of Rosário was established within the 
municipality of Grande Rios by State Law No. 7,106 promulgated on 17 November 
1979, separating from Rio Branco, to be elevated a municipality by State Law No. 
8,399 promulgated on 30 October 1986, which was inaugurated on 1 January 1989. 
The municipality was renamed to Rosário do Ivaí by State Law No. 8,542 
promulgated on 6 June 1987.
