History
In 1800, Father Antonio Duarte was sent to the region for catechetical work. He found a waterhole at the foot of a mountain range and decided to build a small house there. The place became a point of reference in the region, where, later, a tree known as Pau D'arco sprouted. At the time of flowering, it was covered with so many flowers that, touched by the wind, formed a carpet on the surface of the water. Thus, the place became known among travelers as Olho D'Água das Flores. Until 1884, the village was just a stopping point. When Ângelo de Abreu moved to the region, he encouraged agriculture and livestock among the former residents. He built small roads and some weirs. He was even the one who ordered the chapel to be built in honor of Santo Antonio, the village's patron saint. Law 108, of August 24, 1948, created the judicial district of Olho D'Água das Flores, in the municipality of Santana do Ipanema. By Law 1473, of 1949, the village became an administrative district. Only in 1953, through Law 1748, Olho D'Água das Flores was emancipated.

District created with the name of Olho D'Água das Flores ex-town, in 1949. Elevated to the category of municipality in 1953. Emancipation: 12/02/1953
