Parque Central and Cultural Complex
You can start this circuit from the downtown area, from Av.
Olascoaga and Vuelta de Obligado. Here you will be able to visit
a cultural complex that is located in the old Railway Station, built
in 1902, of typical colonial English architecture. The platform
is the axis of a walk to see the Undersecretariat of Culture of
the Province, the Alicia Fernández Rego theater, Art gallery
and the Emilio Saraco art gallery, where the most important plastic
art exhibitions of the area are shown.
The Paseo de los Artesanos shows recycled wagons and you will also
find the Railway Museum. Visiting hours are from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m.
from Wednesday to Sunday.
Always following the tracks and crossing Av. Olascoaga you can
enjoy the Parque Central. The Municipal Historical Museum is located
400 m. from there and was built in 1901 as maintenance grounds of
the Southern Railway.
Other attractions in the area are the Cathedral, Government House
and Municipality.
