It is situated on the Paris�Bordeaux railway, the Tours�Saint-Nazaire railway, and the non-electrified Tours�Le Mans railway. The Gare de Tours is a terminus; most TGV trains only serve the nearby Gare de Saint-Pierre-des-Corps.
On 28 December 1984, the railway station was classified as monument historique.[2]
The architect of the 1898 station was Victor Laloux, with four allegorical limestone statues of cities by Jean Antoine Injalbert (Bordeaux and Toulouse) and Jean-Baptiste Hugues (Limoges and Nantes).
