Soledade, Paraíba

Municipality in Northeast, Brazil From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Soledade (Central northeastern portuguese pronunciation: [suliˈdɐdĭ]) is a municipality in the state of Paraíba in the Northeast Region of Brazil.[2][3][4][5] Acquired as part of a farm purchased by João de Sousa, the land was donated to a church, which planned to build a chapel. However, a cholera outbreak in 1864 meant that the first use of the land would be a cemetery.
