Parma (Italian: Stazione di Parma) is a railway station serving the city of Parma, in the region of Emilia-Romagna, northern Italy. The station opened in 1859 and is located on the Milan–Bologna railway, Pontremolese railway (to La Spezia), Brescia–Parma railway and Parma–Suzzara railway. The train services are operated by Trenitalia, Trenord and Ferrovie Emilia Romagna.
The station is currently managed by Rete Ferroviaria Italiana (RFI). However, the commercial area of the passenger building is managed by Centostazioni. Each of these companies is a subsidiary of Ferrovie dello Stato (FS), Italy's state-owned rail company.
Parma railway station is situated at Piazzale Carlo Alberto dalla Chiesa, at the northern edge of the city centre.
The station was inaugurated on 21 July 1859 together with the extension from Piacenza. It is currently being rebuilt to the design of the Spanish architect Oriol Bohigas.
The passenger building is composed of a large central section and two smaller side buildings, connected by corridors. Inside are the ticket office, waiting room and other public facilities, as well as the headquarters of the railway police and the traffic management department. The upper floor is used by Trenitalia.
The station yard has eight tracks used for passenger services. They are served by a total of four platforms, which are equipped with shelters and connected via a pedestrian underpass. The station yard also has a locomotive shed and a turntable.
