History
The original station was built in 1849.
Current building
The station has been renovated five times since 1870.
In 1933, the current building was constructed under the authority of Raoul Dautry, the directeur général of the Chemins de fer de l'État. It was designed by the french architect Henri Pacon.
Since 2018, the station has been at the centre of a vast renewal of the city's urban core.[1] The project is set to be finished by 2030.
