Designed by the architect Fernando Ramírez Dampierre, it features elements so characteristic of this period such as slate roofs, dormers, art-deco pinnacles and a large central dome. Built entirely of concrete, iron, stone and glass, Canfranc station is also considered one of the greatest jewels of Spanish industrial architecture.
