St Pancras railway station, also known as St Pancras International, is a major railway station in London, England. It is located in the heart of the city and serves as a gateway to the UK from continental Europe, with Eurostar trains connecting the station to Paris, Brussels, and Amsterdam.
The station was first opened in 1868 and was designed by William Barlow, who also designed the nearby Midland Grand Hotel. The station's Victorian Gothic architecture, featuring a clock tower and a large wrought-iron and glass roof, has made it one of the most iconic landmarks in London.
In addition to Eurostar trains, St Pancras serves as a hub for high-speed domestic trains, including the East Midlands Railway and Thameslink services. It also has connections to the London Underground via the nearby King's Cross St Pancras station.
The station has undergone significant redevelopment in recent years, with the addition of new retail and dining options, as well as the restoration of many of its historic features. The station's main concourse, which is over 800 feet long, is often used as a filming location for movies and television shows.
