The Ministère de la Culture's notice

La gare jalonne la ligne Cahors-Capdenac, construite en 1885 et mise en service en 1886 par la compagnie d'Orléans, et reflète certainement une production en série. Le bâtiment principal, d'un étage à trois travées, est accolé de deux ailes. La toiture débordante est soutenue par des consoles en fer. La halle de marchandises a été transformée en habitations. Un système de château d'eau alimente deux grus hydrauliques.

The station marks the Cahors-Capdenac line, built in 1885 and put into service in 1886 by the Orléans company, and certainly reflects a series production. The main building, of one storey with three bays, is joined by two wings. The overhanging roof is supported by iron consoles. The goods hall has been converted into dwellings. A water tower system supplies two hydraulic cranes.
