Explore the new train station in Rennes
The extension of the TGV line has transformed Rennes train station, the entry point into Brittany and now only an hour and 25 minutes from Paris. In order to welcome more than 20 million travellers a year by 2030, the station has been refashioned into a multimodal exchange point and is part of the EuroRennes district project.
Its new architecture is flamboyant, airy and, lit with natural lighting while offering comfortable spaces both inside and out, with services and shops on three levels.
Accessible via a panoramic lift, Le Paris-Brest, a Christian Le Squer Restaurant, is located on the same level as the SNCF ticket hall, with a breathtaking view over the city and the station. If you’re not in Rennes, come out and enjoy a gourmet experience: https://www.oui.sncf/
