Railroad Workers Museum

A Station of History, Labor, and Workers' Resistance in the Age of Steam

AREA

What Makes It Special?
Located in the former La Villa train station, this museum pays tribute to railway workers in Mexico. It preserves the history of trains as a driving force of modernization, but also as a symbol of the labor movement.

Did You Know…?
The station was built in 1907 and today houses original train cars, tools, uniforms, photographs, and archives from the railroad unions. It also hosts cultural events, plays, and concerts.

Don’t Miss
If you're visiting with children, be sure to check out the train cars and models. If you're interested in history, explore the documents and the labor timeline. It's a charming museum with a lot of character.
