Filaret Bus Terminal Bucharest

Presentation

On 31 October, 1869, the first train from Bucharest stopped at the platform of Cutitul de Argint Railway Station. Filaret Station – the first in the history of Bucharest, made by the British, making the connection between Bucharest and Giurgiu. Here, King Carol was waited when he returned to Romania in the company of his new wife, Queen Elisabeth.

In 1960, the station became Filaret Bus Station, and the train lines were disabled. Today, the place hosts dozens of coaches that make regular trips throughout the country and Europe, but nothing from the „charm” of the past has been kept.
