Gare du Sud, Decommissioned railway station in Liberation district, Nice, France.
The station features a monumental stone and brick facade with ceramic tiles, complemented by a large iron train shed at the rear section.
Constructed in 1892 by architect Prosper Bobin, the station incorporated metal components from the 1889 Paris World Exposition pavilions of Russia and Austria-Hungary.
The station building now houses the Raoul Mille library and exhibition spaces, while the former train shed functions as a food market.
Located at Place du Général-de-Gaulle in Nice, the facility operates adjacent to the Liberation outdoor market, which runs Tuesday through Sunday mornings.
The building combines neoclassical architecture with industrial elements, including a Gustave Eiffel-designed metal structure that spans the former platform area.
