Heritage
In 2019, the passenger building received the label "Patrimoine d'intérêt régional" which aims to promote and encourage the protection of elements not subject to formal listing.[5] Built in 1911 using the plans of the former Clamart train station, which was demolished in 1972.[3] This building is structured around a main hall lit on both sides by a glass roof under a gabled roof (with a pointed arch ceiling) perpendicular to the wings arranged on either side. Period costume festivities had taken place to celebrate the 100th anniversary of its construction.[6]
