" The construction of this building, created by Spanish architect Fernando Ramírez de Dampierre, lasted from 1921 to 1925. The structure would feature a total length of 241m, with 75 doors on each side and 'more windows than days in a year'! In 1928 this was the largest train station in Europe."

| | | Posted by Jondoe_264 Wow! That place is spectacular inside and out! Most drool worthy! Looks like a pretty laid back , relaxed environment as well? JD

Yes, relaxed and laid back indeed. In the middle of nowhere, surrounded by high mountains, you find this huge deserted building. Complete nonsense! Slyv

| | | Just to add my voice to the chorus of approval. As has been noted, you approached this with a true archeologist's eye, and that is very much appreciated. A very interesting bit of history. Cheers

Yes, and I might stick to this approach in the future. But especially this location was an important one for me, because I grew up in this place (French side, but now living in Belgium). Unfortunately, abandoned locations with such great historical past are quite rare. Also, I did not mention it yet in this thread, thanks to bikepunk for the great French to English translation.
