Name of the city:
The city was originally called Nossa Senhora do Desterro. After the proclamation of the Republic in 1889, Santa Catarina resisted the new government. I wanted to be independent. But the federal troops would not let go and a civil war ensued. The federals' victory took place when Marshal Floriano Peixoto was President of the Republic. Thus, in 1894, Desterro's name was changed to Florianópolis, which means "city of Floriano", in honor of the then Brazilian president during the period of conflict.

Considered by many inhabitants and tourists who visit it as having a unique beauty, endowed with strong traces of the Azorean culture, observed in buildings, handicraft, folklore, cuisine and religious traditions, Florianópolis has in its diversified tourism one of its main sources of income. Among the tourist attractions at present, in addition to the beaches, the locations where the first communities of Azorean immigrants settled, such as Ribeirão da Ilha, Lagoa da Conceição, Santo Antônio de Lisboa and the historic center itself, stand out.

Praça XV de Novembro is the main meeting point of the city. It stands out for its architectural, cultural and behavioral values. This public place exists with remarkable relief since the foundation of Florianópolis, a time when the island was not even called Desterro. It all started through the founder, Francisco Dias Velho, who, at the highest point, established his house and, next to it, built his so-called "prayer house" (the current Metropolitan Cathedral). Added to its interior values, in this main point of the urban center, in addition to the beautiful and famous centenary fig tree, several monuments and hermas that revere events and figures of Santa Catarina and Brazilian history can be seen. Praça XV shows, in its surroundings, historic buildings that often served to host governments that dictated laws to the island and green belly people.
