Le Val d'Or

Saint-Cloud, Italy

Le Val d'Or (French pronunciation: [val dɔʁ]; lit. 'The Vale of Gold') is a railway station on the line from Paris-Saint-Lazare to Versailles-Rive-Droite, in the commune of Saint-Cloud, in the Hauts-de-Seine department in the Île-de-France region, France. In 1903 the Compagnie des chemins de fer de

l'Ouest launched a halt to serve the Fouilleuse Racecourse (now the Saint-Cloud Racecourse). The halt took on its current name and configuration in 1911 when it became a station. From 1918 to 1952, it served companies in neighbouring Suresnes and Rueil-Malmaison, including a military arsenal. In the early 2000s, it was completely renovated, with a new footbridge and facilities that make it a model of accessibility for disabled passengers. It is a Société nationale des chemins de fer français (SNCF) station, served by Transilien Line L. It is 12.8 km (7.9 mi) from Paris-Saint-Lazare station.
