Summary
[edit]DescriptionBoss' Window (10076977826).jpg |
One of many windows of "Castelinho", the residence of the Chief Engineer of the Sao Paulo Railway. Rumor has it that through these windows, the boss had total control about everything in the village, including firing single male employees that approached a female workers' house. The old Victorian style house is now a museum, where old railway line maps and photographs are displayed. The museum also features the elegant furnishings of the late 1800s and early 1900s, and provides views of its surroundings. About the Village: In the mid-19th century, the São Paulo Railway Company, a privately owned British railway company, laid a snaking network of tracks over Brazil’s green mountains. In order to transport coffee beans from inland plantations to the port of Santos on the south coast, a railroad funicular was incorporated that could lift entire trains full of cargo over the undulating terrain. A British company provided the steam engines that drove the operation and also founded a workers’ village on the highest point in the area, called Paranapiacaba, meaning “a place to view the sea” in Tupi-Guarani. The small houses for railway and funicular employees were constructed from wood, in a style similar to those of British mining towns. Paranapiacaba’s civic buildings and larger homes were Victorian in design, and its train station was adorned with a clock tower in imitation of London’s Big Ben. Source: World Monuments Fund |
