Estación de Atocha

Transport
Train stations

Atocha Station, also known as Estación de Mediodía or Estación del Sur or Embarcadero de Atocha, was built in the 19th century by Alberto de Palacio. It is considered a masterpiece of railway architecture. Between 1985 and 1992 the station was expanded and renovated for the construction of the AVE Madrid - Seville, designed by architect Rafael Moneo and since then has two stations: the new one is intended for rail traffic -terminal of the AVE, long distance and commuter network-, while the old one has been dedicated to RENFE offices and a shopping and leisure complex. There is a tourist information office in the AVE vestibule. <span class="automatic-translation-warning">This text was automatically translated.</span>
