Antiga Estação Férrea de Santo Ângelo

Antiga Estação Férrea de Santo Ângelo, Railway museum in Santo Ângelo, Brazil.

The Antiga Estacao Ferrea de Santo Angelo is a railway museum housed in a brick building with two vintage train cars and an old iron water tank on its grounds. The site sits in the central district and displays objects that document the role of rail transport in the region.

The railway station opened on October 16, 1921, and operated until September 12, 1969, serving as a key transportation hub for the region. After closure, the structure continued as a historical landmark, preserving memories of the era when rail travel connected the state.

The memorial takes its name from the Coluna Prestes, the 25,000-kilometre march led by Luís Carlos Prestes that set out from Santo Ângelo in October 1924. In the garden stands "A Coluna Invicta", a sculpture by Maurício Bentes, and an obelisk on Avenida Ipiranga bears Oscar Niemeyer's drawing of the route from Santo Ângelo to Piauí.

The memorial occupies the old station building on Avenida Ipiranga, where the obelisk with Niemeyer's route drawing stands nearby; the railway museum and its two wagons are attached to the memorial. The station was listed as municipal heritage by law 825 of 19 November 1984 and as state heritage by portaria 46 of 10 July 2013.

The obelisk on Avenida Ipiranga near the station was designed by Oscar Niemeyer, a close friend of Luís Carlos Prestes, and traces the column's route from Santo Ângelo to Piauí. The station building has been listed as municipal heritage since 1984 and state heritage since 2013.
