Paris Gare de Lyon Concourse: Travelers and Architecture

Inside the Gare de Lyon train station
The main concourse of Gare de Lyon in Paris, France, showcases its historic iron-and-glass architecture, a design characteristic of late 19th and early 20th-century train stations. Opened in 1900 for the Exposition Universelle, this major rail hub serves as a gateway for high-speed TGV and regional services connecting Paris to southeastern France and international destinations. Today, travelers navigate the expansive hall, indicated by signage for platforms C through G, information services, and connections to the Paris Métro and RER lines.
