History

The name of the municipality honors João Batista de Figueiredo Tenreiro Aranha, the first president of the province of Amazonas at the time of the empire.

The origins of the municipality are mainly related to Novo Airão and Itapiranga, since most of the territory that today is President Figueiredo was dismembered, as well as Manaus, whose neighborhood was an influential factor in the development of the region. The first settlements in these poles date from 1657, to the place where today is the municipality of Manaus, and in 1668, the place today is the headquarters of Novo Airão.

It was from these nuclei that the consolidation and expansion of the settlement of the Baixo Rio Negro took place. Integrated in the municipality of Manaus, Novo Airão became a capital district in 1938, then with the name simply Airão. It is in 1955 that the dismemberment of Manaus takes place, being constituted the Autonomous municipality of Novo Airão. In parallel, in 1952 was created the municipality of Itapiranga, counting in its area with the current village of Balbina.
