History
The city was formed by pioneers from the federal capital, Brasília, mainly families of civil servants from Rio de Janeiro. The first constructions, sets of semi-detached houses in Cruzeiro Velho, began in 1958. In the 1970s, the city was expanded with the construction of Cruzeiro Novo, formed by 4-story buildings.

The ARUC samba school club is located there, the greatest champion of the Candango Carnival, with 28 titles since the beginning of the parades in 1962.

It is one of the quietest places in the Federal District due to the quality of life of the population and also for its proximity to the Sarah Kubitschek City Park, in Brasília.
