About Estação Ferroviária de Miranda
The Estação Ferroviária de Miranda is a remnant of the city’s connection to the Estrada de Ferro Noroeste do Brasil. The building opened in 1912 and retains its elongated shape, ceramic roof and the platform canopy alongside the tracks. The complex now houses activities related to tourism and culture, maintaining a presence in everyday urban life. The visit allows you to see a historic station in the context of a Pantanal town, understanding the train’s role in transporting people and goods. Start at the yard and the façades, without entering the track area. Check with staff about interior spaces that can be visited and the ways the railway’s memory is presented. Cultural programming may change the use of part of the complex, but the tour should focus on the permanent heritage.
