JuteVilla
The town was founded in 1820 by the seargeant ("sargento-mor") Antônio Eustáquio da Silva e Oliveira. The name was taken from the brazilian native language, Tupi and means "bright water". It was classified as indigenous territory on February 1811 and then as a freguesia on March 2, 1820 with the name of Santo Antônio e São Sebastião do Uberaba. Uberaba became a city on February 22, 1836.

The region known as Triângulo Mineiro, where Uberaba is located, was part of Goiás until 1816, when it became part of Minas Gerais.
