Freguesia do Ó is one of 96 districts in the city of São Paulo, Brazil. Situated in the northwest zone, it served as a route between the city and the region of Campinas and Jundiaí, in the São Paulo state. It is known for its parish church (the first one to be built there), for being the oldest district (Portuguese: freguesia) in the state capital and for housing the samba school Sociedade Rosas de Ouro, a seven-time champion of the São Paulo carnival.
