Termini, Rome’s main railway station, is the second largest passenger in Europe, behind Paris’s Gare du Nord: about 800 trains run through it daily. At Rome Termini train station there are trains from all major cities of the country and many European capitals, both lines of the Roman metro cross here, and on the Cinquecento square, where the facade of the station looks, there is a bus station and many public transport stops.
During its one and half century history, the main station in Rome was rebuilt and reconstructed more than once. The first building of the station was built in 1863 to serve the railway line of Rome-Frascati – it was built on the site of Villa Mantalto-Peretti.
A few years later, the small station stopped coping with passenger traffic, and it was decided to build a more spacious and solid building on the hill of Esquiline. The construction lasted more than ten years, and was completed in 1874. Due to its location – not far from Diocletian’s terme, the station was called “Termini”.
The last reconstruction of Termini was made in 2000
The next stage of perestroika began in 1937 on the orders of Mussolini, but was interrupted by the war that had begun. After the end of World War II, construction continued, and already in 1950, Termini Station in Rome earned full force.
The last reconstruction, which turned it into one of the most modern railway stations in the country, was made quite recently – in 2000. Today’s Termini Station is a grandiose structure with a well-developed infrastructure: ticket offices, information offices, storage rooms, cafes, restaurants, newsagents, many shops, as well as a large shopping center.
