This article aims to bring elements that allow the analysis of education in Campanha da Princesa, the most important city in the southern region of Minas Gerais in the nineteenth century. In order to address the education of the city, we situate it in the process of social and political changes in Minas Gerais, which took place after the quick development of the Rio das Mortes region in the late 18th century. We highlight Campanha as the protagonist of this process and the constitution of a territorial identity that originated the idea of the South of Minas as a specific region. We present some particularities of education and the people in the schools. For this, we highlight its specificities, especially when compared with other regions of Minas Gerais. Thus, we present some elements that point to the importance of considering regional specificities in the studies of education in Minas Gerais.

Keywords : South of Minas - Campanha da Princesa - Educational Historiography.
