There is a degree of curiosity concerning the name of the town.[2] It is said that in order to arrive at the city ofVideira (to which the town belonged until 1961), a small river (Arroio) had to be crossed thirty (Trinta) times, and for this reason the name of the town became Arroio Trinta.
The Italian descendants who immigrated to the region ofUrussanga began to colonise Arroio Trinta in 1924. Until then, the population was made up of caboclos.[3]
The firstmill of Arroio Trinta came a year later after the arrival of the first families and the firstsawmill was established five years later.[4]
