Saint-Jean-de-Maurienne station


Saint-Jean-de-Maurienne is a railway station located in Saint-Jean-de-Maurienne, Savoie, France. The station was opened on 20 October 1856 and is located on the Culoz–Modane railway. The train station is operated by SNCF, with TGV inOui, Frecciarossa and regional TER rail services.
In the 2020s, it is rebuilt in the context of the construction of the Lyon-Turin high-speed railway, to make it an international station, since the tunnel at the base of Mount Ambin is just a few hundred meters further to the southeast.

History

The "Saint-Jean de Maurienne" station is opened on October 20, 1856 by the Victor Emmanuel Railway company, as it opened the track section between Aix-les-Bains and Saint-Jean de Maurienne.
The station becomes part of the French railway network on the 11th of June 1860, official date of the annexation of Savoie.
In 1861, in his Guide for the visitor of the departments of Savoie and Haute-Savoie, Gabriel de Mortillet appreciated the quality of the Buffet service but noted that getting downtown from the station requires either a very steep path, or a long detour by the road.

New station

As part of the construction of the Lyon-Turin railway, a new international train station is being built, with an opening projected for 2030.

Train services

As of November 2025, the station serves as a stop on connections between Paris and Italy, as well as on regional rail services.
