Smolensk railway station is the primary passenger railway station for the city of Smolensk in Russia, and an important stop along the Moscow–Brest Railway.

History

There were two buildings that stood parallel to each other and were connected by an arch with a clock. After the Great Patriotic War, the current railway station was built in 1949-1951. Architects were Boris Mezentsev and Mikhail Shpotov.

The first train that arrived in Smolensk was from Vitebsk (Belarus).
