Austerlitz Station
Description:
Austerlitz Station is located in the 13th district of the capital. It is from this railway station that trains depart in the direction of Bordeaux and Toulouse, in addition, they are sent to neighboring countries Spain and Portugal.
It is also known that up to 30 million people pass through Austerlitz station every year. This station is the main starting point to Blois, from where daily tourist routes to the castles of Laura are organized.
The first station building was built back in 1840, but the building was not destined for a long existence. The station was rebuilt and expanded. Exactly 20 years later, a famous French architect named P. L. Reno carried out the reconstruction of Austerlitz. It is known that according to the Renault project, a large hall, an administrative office, a buffet were built.
For a very long time Austerlitz railway station was the only station where trains went to Belgium and Germany. However, after a while, the TGV roads opened, which led to the fact that the passenger traffic of Austerlitz was very reduced.
