The colonisation of the town started in 1825 with German immigrants who settled in the town centre. Initially, agriculture was the only economic activity. Afterwards landmarks such as the Deuner Mill started being built and also brought more economic activity to the town. More recently the Shoemaking Industry and commerce have been the main contributors to the town's economic success. The emancipation of Campo Bom happened in 31-Jan-1959.
