Milano Centrale railway station, Railway station in Milan, Italy

Milano Centrale contains 24 platforms under steel and glass canopies, handling over 320,000 travelers through its grand halls and concourses each day.

The construction started in 1906 with a cornerstone from King Victor Emmanuel III, leading to its official opening in 1931 under architect Ulisse Stacchini's direction.

The station building combines Art Deco and Neo-Renaissance architectural elements across its 200-meter-wide structure, rising to a height of 72 meters.

The facility provides direct connections to major Italian cities through high-speed rail services, with additional international routes to Switzerland, France, and Germany.

Platform 21, now a memorial space, stands as a testament to World War II deportations, preserving the memory of historical events from that period.
