Introduction

Located in the west of France , Nantes is one of the important railway hubs in France, with six different directions of railways. Nantes Station is located in the south of the city of Nantes. It is east-west and the main entrance is facing north. Nantes Tram Line 1 passes through Nantes Station.

Built in 1849, the original name was "Gare de Nantes-Orléans" because it was originally managed by the Paris-Orleans Railway Company.

In 1972, “Nante-Orleans Station” was officially renamed “Nante Station”. In 1993, Nantes South Square was completed and operated, and there were long-distance bus stations and large parking lots nearby.

Platform

Station 1 is next to the main building, but there are two passenger passages that extend below the track and can be accessed directly into voies 2-11. The main passage can be accessed via stairs to the platform No. 2-11. So if you have luggage, don't think you have to use the stairs.

The main passage is also connected to the main (north) departure hall and walks up the stairs to the left at the end of the passage. However, the secondary passage (which will face the front of the train when arriving from Paris) has an elevator/rear passage in addition to the stairs.
