>A Curious Cuban Jewel: Morón Railroad Station
> 
>One of the buildings that most attract those who visit Morón city is the  
>Railroad Station. Although the construction of this structure concluded in 1923,  
>as still can be read on the inscription topping its facade, it was not  
>inaugurated until July 14, 1924.
> 
>Previously only a  similar one had been built, the Railroad Station of  
>Havana. This one in Moron, from the architectural point of view, followed the  
>eclectic codes of its time, but is rather distinguished by a marked neocolonial  
>influence.  
> 
>The building has two floors. The first one was always used as railroad  
>station and the second hosted the railroad offices and gave lodging to some of  the 
>employees. 
>Declared Local Monument, this building is representative of  Moron city and 
>constitutes a reason of pride for local residents.
