District cut the railway line built by Dom Pedro II 1890, Madureira still has the bucolic atmosphere of the suburbs: houses with tiled facades, duplexes with yards, neighbors chatting in chairs placed in the street, phonographs playing old sambas. Who sees the neighborhood today can not imagine that the area was once a large farm cattle and cane sugar,, whose owner - Lourenço Madureira - named the place.

From the end of the century 19 and beginning of the century 20, with the installation of the railway, the increasing industrialization of the country and the expulsion of the central areas of city workers, the farm is subdivided and Madureira becomes one of the main neighborhoods of Rio suburb. Little by little, especially during the Vargas government, immigrants from various countries came to Brazil to work in factories and farms, taking the suburban setting to be filled with people of different nationalities. Thus, Portuguese, Turkish, Lebanese, German, Poles and Russians started to live with the residents of Madureira and help give the neighborhood its current face.
