Montpellier Saint-Roch railway station
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Saint-Roch is the main railway station in Montpellier, France. Although the station was formerly known as Gare de Montpellier but since March 2005 bears the name of Saint Roch, a native of the city born in the 14th century.
Since the beginning of the 2000s, the station is in the middle of an urban regeneration project involving old railway property called the Nouveau Saint-Roch.
Saint-Roch is one of the principal transport hubs of Languedoc-Roussillon situated between Nîmes and Sète.
The station building comprises a listed front face and a passenger building laid out on three levels. What was the bus station above the tracks is now a short stay carpark.
