Train Stations in France

Many of the larger train stations of France date from the 19th century and feature the period's architectural preferences. Two of Paris' largest stations: the Gare d'Austerlitz and the Gare Montparnasse, service lines stretching as far away as southern Spain. Nice's iconic Gare de Nice Ville is only a 20-minute walk from the beach.
  1. Gare Montparnasse-Paris

    • One of the busiest train stations in France, the Gare Montparnasse in Paris serves lines reaching all the way to the southern coast of Spain. It's comprised of three stations: the Maine, the Pasteur and the Vaugirard. It also serves lines to the Charles de Gaulle and the Orly airports. It was first opened in 1840.

    Gare d'Austerlitz-Paris

    • Named after a battle fought in present-day Czech Republic of which Napoleon's army was the victor, the Gare d'Austerlitz was built in 1840 and is located directly on the banks of the river Seine. It serves the Orly airport and Metro lines 10 and 5. It is the terminus of many trains from southern France and Spain.

    Gare de Nice Ville

    • A 20-minute walk from the beach, the Gare de Nice Ville was originally built outside the center of Nice but has since been surrounded by urban construction. The station still stands in its original condition and services the city's airport.

      There is a tourist office located outside the station on Avenue Theirs.
