Gare de Denfert-Rochereau, Railway station and historical monument in 14th arrondissement, France
The Denfert-Rochereau station building features preserved 19th-century architecture with a notable façade and traditional French railway design elements.
The station opened its doors in June 1846 under the name Gare de Sceaux, implementing the innovative Arnoux system for articulated trains.
The station represents a fusion of transportation and architectural heritage, with its structures officially recognized as historical monuments since 1996.
This multimodal hub connects Paris Metro lines 4 and 6, RER Line B, and provides direct access to Orly Airport through dedicated bus services.
The original right wing of the building was removed in 1889 to accommodate the railway extension toward Luxembourg station.
