History
The expansion of coffee cultivation in the North of the state of São Paulo attracted many settlers who founded farming settlements as the population of the region increased. In 1911, Captain Francisco dos Santos founded a community near the Rio Grande settlement in the territory of São José do Rio Preto. Its original name was Vila Bela.
In a short time, the first houses were built around the chapel of Saint Benedict's patron. When the Police District was created, the village was renamed 'Pitangueiras', and its name was changed again to New Granada when it was elevated to a District of Peace in 1917.
According to the local chronicle, Its name comes from the old Spanish immigrant settlers who came from Granada (Spain).
