The Old Railroad of Antioquia Building

Patrimonial pride of Medellín
You can really get a sense of the importance of Medellin’s patrimony by visiting the Old Railroad of Antioquia Building.  It was declared a national monument in 1996 for its historical value in the city and country.

This building is unique for its design that was influenced by the French Renaissance and for being located on one of the most beautiful corners of the downtown area.  You can get there on foot or from just about every mode of urban transportation available. 

An architectural wonder

The Old Railroad of Antioquia Building

The Old Railroad of Antioquia Building is vestige of the most important means of transportation in the Medellin of yesteryear.

In this fascinating building, you can find an antique locomotive that will take you back to the times when going by train was the best way to get from one place to another.  You will also discover interesting temporary exhibits or sip on delicious Colombian coffee from the cafeteria as you explore this historical place.

The Old Railroad of Antioquia Building is located in a strategic area of the city, right next to the Alpujarra government center, El Parque de Las Luces (The Park of Lights), the Metropolitan Theater and Playa Mayor.
