Curitiba Station

Curitiba Station is a museum housed in a former railway station building that displays over 600 historical railway artifacts, including a steam locomotive, station equipment, and transportation items. The collection shows different phases of rail development through objects that document daily operations from that era.

The building operated as an active railway station from 1885 until 1972 and was a hub connecting Curitiba with the port of Paranaguá. This connection was crucial for the region's economy and shaped transportation patterns for nearly a century.

The building keeps original ticket counters and architectural details that show how railway technology evolved in southern Brazil. These spaces tell the story of train travel through their design and preserved elements.

Access to the museum is through the Shopping Estação mall where the building is located. Visitors should allow time to explore the displayed items at a leisurely pace since the collection is extensive.

The museum preserves a large accounting ledger from the original station containing detailed records of railway operations from the early 20th century. This document shows daily transactions and operations that are rarely documented elsewhere.
