Água Preta (Black Water) is a Brazilian municipality (city) in the state of Pernambuco. It covers 533.33km2, and has a population of 37,082 with a population density of 62.05 inhabitants per square kilometer.
Água Preta was founded as a district of the municipality of Rio Formoso in 10 de novembro 1809. It became an independent municipality on July 3, 1895. The Praieira revolt (1848–1849), which originated Recife, spread to Água Preta in its first year. Captain Pedro Ivo Veloso da Silveira (? - 1852) took refuge in the forests of Agua Preta after the defeat of his faction in Recife and organized a guerrilla resistance for two years before his surrender.
The main economic activities in Água Preta are based in agribusiness, especially plantations of sugarcane and cattle-keeping. The city's other main economy is the civil service.
