History
In the Pre-Discovery period, numerous indigenous tribes of the Tupi-Guarani trunk inhabited the region where Osasco is located today. In the region where Osasco is located and in its surroundings there were several farms and ranches. Near the banks of the Tietê, in the 19th century, there was a fishing village and large farms. One of them was sold to Italian Antonio Agu, an immigrant with whom our story begins.

Antonio Agu owned several businesses and land in the region. In 1887 he bought a piece of land at Km 16 of the Sorocabana Railway. Around 1890, he decided to expand his pottery and invited Baron Dimitri Sensaud De Lavaud as a partner. The small factory, which produced bricks and tiles, also started to make tubes and ceramics, giving rise to the first industry in the city, Companhia Cerâmica Industrial de Vila Osasco.

After other initiatives, in 1895, Agu built the Railway Station, building several houses in the surroundings to house the workers who arrived to work on the work.

The directors of the Railroad wanted to name the station after the main entrepreneur in the region, but Antonio Agu asked that the tribute be not given to him but to his hometown in Italy: Osasco.

From then on, Osasco, as the region came to be known, kept growing, many well-known people from the commerce and several important industries settled here. To operate the machines of these industries, immigrants were hired. This labor began to form the population of the place and gave rise to its people.

Osasco grew, both in population and commercially, becoming developed. In 1952, the first demonstrations for emancipation appeared, to make the then sub-district of São Paulo a city.

The emancipationist movement suffered many oppositions and obstacles, but finally, after a troubled plebiscite, on February 19, 1962, Osasco obtained its political-administrative emancipation and became a municipality. The date is celebrated to this day with great pride by all of us, who love and fight for the progress of this city, the 5th largest in the State of São Paulo and one of the most promising in Brazil.

1887 - Antonio Agu buys the land in the region; 1895 - Construction of the first Railway Station that was named Osasco in honor of Antonio Agu's hometown; February 19, 1962 - Osasco emancipates itself from the city of São Paulo and Hirant Sanazar is elected mayor.
