Conjunto Ferroviario de Campo Grande

Conjunto Ferroviario de Campo Grande is a railway complex featuring the Northwest Brazil Railway Station and surrounding buildings that display industrial architecture with English influences. The site comprises multiple structures including a cultural warehouse, library, and historical archive that serve as centers for artistic and cultural activities.

The railway station was officially inaugurated on October 14, 1914, and played a central role in developing the state of Mato Grosso do Sul by connecting commerce and transportation. The adjacent Railway Villa was built in 1917 to provide housing for railway workers and their families, forming an important residential community tied to the station.

The Cultural Warehouse within the complex functions as an exhibition and event space where local artists display their work and the community gathers. The building serves as a gathering place for artistic expression and creative exchange in the city.

The site is home to the Historical Archive of Campo Grande with a collection of about seven thousand records spanning various music genres available for free access. The complex offers complimentary music courses and multiple rooms to explore the buildings and their collections.

The Railway Villa next to the station was designed as an independent residential quarter for railway employees and stands near the birthplace of former Brazilian president Jânio Quadros. This historic residential area offers a rare view into the living conditions of railway families during the region's early industrial period.
