Lisbon - Portugal :

Lisbon Rossio Train station -- The Rossio Railway Station (Portuguese: Estação de Caminhos de Ferro do Rossio) is a railway station in Lisbon, Portugal, located in the Rossio square. The train station was formerly known as Estação Central (Central Station) and that designation still apears in its façade.

The Train Station was commissioned by the Portuguese Royal Railway Company and was designed between 1886 and 1887 by Portuguese architect José Luís Monteiro. It was built in one the most important squares of Lisbon, the Rossio, and connected the city to the region of Sintra. The beautiful façade dominates the northwest side of the square and is a Romantic recreation of the exuberant Manueline style, typical of early 16th century Portugal. Its most interesting features are the two intertwined horseshoe portals at the entrance, the watch in a small turret and the abundant sculptural decoration. Inside, the platform is connected by ramps to the façade level and is covered by a cast-iron structure executed by a Belgium firm.

The railway station is an important example of Romantic (façade) and Cast-iron (platform cover) architecture in Portugal. The access of trains to the station, which is in the central city urban area of Lisbon, is made by a tunnel more than 2600 m long. This tunnel was escavated under the city and is considered one of the most important works of engineering of Portugal in the XIX century. Beside the station there is a Beaux-Arts style hotel building, the Hotel Avenida, inaugurated in 1892 and also built by José Luís Monteiro.
