Lille-Flandres is the main train station of Lille, capital city of the French Flanders. It is a terminus for SNCF Intercity and regional trains and was named Flandres in 1993 when Lille-Europe station opened.

The station was built by Léonce Reynaud and Sydney Dunnett for the CF du Nord. Construction begun in 1869 and ended in 1892. The station front is the old front from Paris' Gare du Nord and was dismantled then reassembled in Lille at the end of the XIXth century, and extra storey as well as a large clock were added to the original design. Dunnett added the Hôtel des Voyageurs in 1887, and the rooftop in 1892.
