Venice Main Railway Station
Venecia Santa Lucia is the largest of two train stations in Venice and is located on the "island" part of the city. The construction became possible only at the end of the 19th century when the dam protecting Venice was built.
The construction works started in 1861, and the station was named in honor of the demolished church of Santa Lucia that was replaced with the station. The modern station was built in 1952 after an almost 20-year long reconstruction. Learn more about Venecia Santa Lucia train station below.
Address: Fondamenta Santa Lucia, 30121, Venice, Veneto

| How to get there? Since Santa Lucia train station is located on the Grand Canal near Piazzale Roma ( Roma Square), it is quite an excellent meeting point as most local and international bus routes stop there. In case you arrive in Venice in a car, it is a good idea to leave it at the Piazzale Roma parking lot; you just need to cross the Constitution Bridge, and you're good to go. However, the most convenient and fast way (though most expensive) is to call any water taxi available in Venice. |
