Cordoba Train Station helps connecting the capital city of Cordoba and the province with the rest of Andalucia and Spain. Discover its characteristics.
Cordoba Train station doesn’t own a proper name, in contrast with Malaga – María Zambrano and Seville Santa Justa.
It was inaugurated in 1994, when it substituted the station of Cordoba Central, which, nowadays is the see of the provincial RTVA (Andalusian public radio and television broadcaster). When the high-speed trains started working, the grounds surrounding the station were recuperated, thus helping the integration of those districts that got separated from the rest of the city by the old railways. In the station, there are eight railways, four for high-speed trains and four for Long and Half-Distance trains, and Cercanías trains.
