History
Opened in 1870, the Grand Railway Station first connected Iași to Chernivtsi in Bukovina, Austria-Hungary and, after two years, to Bucharest.
The original building designed by Julian Oktawian Zachariewicz-Lwigród[1] and inspired by the Doge's Palace of the Republic of Venice, is 133.8 metres (439 ft) long, has 113 rooms and is listed in the National Register of Historic Monuments.[2]
In 1928-1930, two additional wings were symmetrically added to each side of the building. In 1980, a new separate building was constructed on the north side of the complex station and named Iași Nord.
The main buildings of the station have recently been restored with modern additions.[3]-
Current operations
Passenger services
As of 2013, Iași railway station serves about 110 trains in a typical day, including domestic trains to and from a majority of Romanian cities. Additionally, international trains run to Chișinău and Ungheni, in the Republic of Moldova.

The station is served by several tram and bus lines operated by CTP Iași, the local transit operator. Bus route 50 provides non-stop service to the Iași International Airport, with departures every 30 minutes.[4][5]
