History
The station was opened in 1885 as the terminus of the newly constructed Saronno-Como railway. The line was intended to provide a direct link between Como and Milan, bypassing the existing line through Monza. The original station building, still in use today, features a neoclassical design, typical of late 19th-century Italian railway architecture.[1]
Station layout
The station building is situated on the western side of the tracks. It houses a ticket office, waiting room, and other passenger facilities. The platforms are accessible via a pedestrian underpass. The station is adjacent to a bus terminal, providing connections to local and regional bus services. There is also a ferry terminal nearby, providing boat services across Lake Como.
