    Tips

    It was a key point on the Carrilet railway line, a narrow-gauge railway that connected Girona with Sant Feliu de Guíxols from its opening in 1892 until its closure in 1969. This railway played a fundamental role in the development of the town, especially in the cork industry, allowing the transport of goods and passengers between the towns in the region.

    Cassà station was one of the most important due to the industrial boom of the town, which exported cork products via the Carrilet. However, over time, the train lost relevance due to the increase in the use of cars and the improvement of roads, which led to the closure of the line.

    After its closure, the railway line was converted into the Carrilet II Greenway, a popular cycling and hiking route that links Girona with Sant Feliu. Although it no longer functions as a station, the original building is preserved as part of the historical heritage of the municipality, recalling the importance of the train in the economic and social growth of Cassà. Today it is an emblematic place for those who travel along the greenway, connected to the railway past and the industrial identity of the town.

        One of the many old train stations alongside the Ruta del Carrilet. They all have their own character and story to tell.
