Juiz de Fora, in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, became the most important city in Minas Gerais, due to the strong industrial growth experienced during this period. With the creation of Belo Horizonte, the city continued to progress until the economic crisis of 1929, when the economy of Brazilian municipalities linked to coffee production is seriously shaken. From then on, Juiz de Fora experienced periods of development, as in the 1970s, and recession as in the 1940s and 1980s. As a result of the oscillations in the economy, as well as factors of political and social factors, the city was creating myths which were impregnated in the soul of its inhabitants. The purpose of this work is to rescue old narratives of fiction, chronicles and works of art, revolving the layers of sediments that accumulated over the city of origin, but which help to better understand the present city and contribute to the construction of the city of the future.
