The Piazzale Flaminio railway station is a railway station in Rome (Italy) and the terminus of the Rome–Civitacastellana–Viterbo railway, managed by ASTRAL (Lazio).

History

The station was inaugurated on October 28 1932 (the tenth anniversary of the March on Rome) together with the Rome - Civita Castellana line; the last urban section was built in a tunnel under the quarter Parioli.^[1]

Description

The station is located on the ground floor of a three-story building designed by the architect Ariodante Bassero. It has an underground hall about 100 meters long, with tracks on either side and a central sidewalk.
