The Gent-Sint-Pieters railway station is the largest station of Ghent and considering the ridership's third largest railway station in Belgium .
history
The origin of the station goes back to a small station on the Ghent to Ostend line from 1881. At that time, the city's most important train station was the Südbahnhof from 1837. In connection with the 1913 World's Fair , a new Sint-Pieters station was built. It was designed by Louis Cloquet and opened a year earlier. In 1995 the station was placed under a preservation order and since 2006 it has been extensively modernized and expanded.
