Perugia railway station, also known as Perugia Fontivegge railway station (Italian: Stazione di Perugia; Stazione di Perugia Fontivegge) is the main station serving the city and comune of Perugia, in the region of Umbria, central Italy. Opened in 1866, it forms part of the Foligno–Terontola railway, which also links Florence with Rome.
The station is currently managed by Rete Ferroviaria Italiana (RFI). However, the commercial area of the passenger building is managed by Centostazioni. Train services are operated by or on behalf of Trenitalia. Each of these companies is a subsidiary of Ferrovie dello Stato (FS), Italy's state-owned rail company.
Regional train services calling at the station are operated by , which sub-contracts on behalf of Trenitalia.
Perugia railway station is situated at Piazza Vittorio Veneto, in the heavily populated district of Fontivegge, about 3 kilometres (1.9 mi) southwest of the city centre.
The station was opened on 12 December 1866, upon the inauguration of the Ellera Corciano–Ponte San Giovanni section of the Foligno–Terontola railway.
The passenger building is a large structure built on three levels. Only the ground floor is accessible to travellers, through a main entrance below three large arches. Adjacent to the main building are two other buildings arranged symmetrically on a single plane.
Inside the entrance to the passenger building is a ticket office. This room is very large. In its middle are four substantial columns, supporting a high ceiling. Dividing the ticket hall from the station yard are three blue and green glass doors.
