Limeira is a Brazilian municipality located in the Centre-East of the state of São Paulo. It lies at latitude 22°33′53″ south and longitude 47°24′06″ west, at an altitude of 588 metres. It covers an area of 580.711 km², and its population according to IBGE statistics for 2024 totals 300,728 inhabitants, making it the 26th most populous municipality in the state. It is part of the Metropolitan Region of Piracicaba, which forms part of the São Paulo metropolitan complex, the largest in the Southern Hemisphere, with around 30 million inhabitants.
An important industrial hub in the interior of the state of São Paulo, the city was a major coffee-growing centre in the 19th century, symbolised by the Ibicaba Farm, the largest coffee producer for several years. The farm served as a base for Senator Vergueiro and later for Emperor Pedro II during the Paraguayan War, and became one of the cruellest centres of slavery in Brazil. Later it attracted thousands of immigrants and was the scene of a colonists' revolt in 1856. In the Second Republic, it was an important centre of combat during the Constitutionalist Revolution of 1932, aggravated by internal divisions.
