The Marrakesh Railway Station is a railway station in Marrakesh, Morocco; it is currently the southern end-point of the Moroccan railway system.
The current station was opened on August 10, 2008.
From Marrakesh there is a direct rail link to Casablanca and Fes.
The old station, built in 1923, was located along Hassan II Avenue and served as a terminus of the rail system.
It was within walking distance of the new city-centre district and Royal Theatre.
In 2008 a newly constructed station was opened adjacent to the old building and tracks were extended.
The new station, located 100 meters closer to the city-centre district (and directly opposite the Royal Theatre), is larger and was built to serve the planned extension of the rail network towards Agadir and Laayone.
It contains several shops and fast food restaurants, including a KFC.
An Ibis Hotel is located directly adjacent to the station.
