Desamparados station

The three-story building of the station was the first public work conducted by the Peruvian architect Rafael Marquina in 1911, and its construction was finished a year later.

[1] One of the main features to the interior is the stained glass skylight, made in the Art Nouveau style.

The main facade is symmetrical and consists of five vertical bodies divided by four pilasters of classical design.

The architect David Mutal was in charge of maintaining the validity and sobriety of the station's architecture.

[4] Among the pieces on display is the presidential wagon "Paquita", ordered to be built in honor of the wife of then-President Óscar R. Benavides.
