About the location

Les Cathédrales du rail

2 chemin des Petits Cailloux 93210 Saint-Denis

Seine-Saint-Denis
Île-de-France

Located on a 5.5-hectare plot between the North Railway Yard and President Wilson Avenue in Saint-Denis, the Rail Cathedrals sector corresponds to the former SNCF repair shops of the Plaine. It owes its name to the presence of two former railway halls belonging to the industrial heritage of Saint-Denis.
