Santa Lucia Station

Those arriving in Venice from other Italian cities or elsewhere in Europe will likely find themselves pulling into Santa Lucia Station, the city’s main train station and the principal transport hub of the historic city. Dating back to the 20th century, the striking modernist building is the work of architects Mazzoni and Vallot, and occupies a prime position on the north bank of the Grand Canal, with more than 80,000 passengers passing through daily.
There are a number of options for reaching the city from Santa Lucia Station, but the most atmospheric choice is to take a water taxi along the canal.

Practical Info

Santa Lucia Station is located close to the Scalzi Bridge on the north bank of the Grand Canal in central Venice.
