Racour Station

Country: Belgium, RAVeL Line 147

EUROPEAN GREENWAYS AWARD 2021

One of the best examples of railway heritage transformation is the beautifully restored former Racour Station on RAVeL Line 147, accessible by bike via greenways from Landen in Flanders and towards Namur in Wallonia. It has become a meeting point for greenway users from both the Flemish and Walloon communities. Built in 1907 and now a protected heritage monument, it is a fine example of rural Belgian railway architecture, carefully preserved to reflect the history of the former line.
