Ottignies railway station

Ottignies railway station (Gare d'Ottignies, Station Ottignies) is a railway station in Ottignies-Louvain-la-Neuve, Walloon Brabant, Belgium. The station was opened in 1855 by the Grande Compagnie de Luxembourg, and from 1884, had a station building designed by the architect Charles Licot. This building was destroyed in 1996 and replaced by a new, modern and functional building inaugurated in 1999. In 2024, it was the third busiest station in Wallonia after Liège-Guillemins and Namur (serving a similar number of passengers), and the ninth-busiest in Belgium. Ottignies is an important station on the National Railway Company of Belgium (SNCB/NMBS) network. It is served by InterCity (IC), suburban (S), local (L), rush hour (P) and touristic (ICT) trains.
