Gare de Cauterets, Railway station and historical monument in Cauterets, France.

Gare de Cauterets is a former railway station built in 1897-1898 by the Carde firm of Bordeaux in pitch pine, shipped in pieces and reassembled by contractor Médévielle. The long building has a central two-storey block flanked by symmetrical wings, each ending in a pavilion with a door, and a canopy running the length of the side platform. The gable carries the name "GAUTERETS" in white capital letters.

The railway station was built around 1899 to support the growing tourist demand in the mountain town and improve transportation links. Operations lasted about 50 years before closure, but the building was preserved and later granted protected monument status.

The station's name appears in white capital letters across the gable of the wooden building, which was made by the Carde firm of Bordeaux in pitch pine, dismantled and reassembled at Cauterets in 1898. Since the 1990s the former passenger hall has housed a bus terminal, an association room and a venue for concerts and shows.

The site is easily accessible on foot and now serves as a bus terminal and event venue for the local community. Visitors should note that the interior may not be freely accessible when events or community gatherings are scheduled.

The original railway line featured impressive engineering with steep curves and viaducts to overcome the significant elevation gain across its route. This technical achievement of that era shows the challenges faced when building railways through the Pyrenees.
