Owned by SNCF, it operates the trains Intercités, Interloire and the TER Centre-Val de Loire. With 6 lanes and 4 wharves, it allows an annual transit of about 3 500 000 passengers. Inaugurated on May 7, 1843, the building that composes it today is the fourth. With its "Beaubourg" aspect of the pipes that make it up, it opens a dimension to light thanks to the height of its nave (17 meters). Does its wavy design give thought to any connection with the waves of the sea for those who pass through the Interloire to the Croisic? In any case, this modern architectural design of delicate invoices is spoiled by the no-line protuberance of Arc Square's shopping mall, but also by this huge "glass tile box" for machines and offices that break the curves of its harmony. Shame. Thus, it can only be seen from the Avenue de Paris, which seems to reduce her majesty and remove her from the traveller.
