🇨🇭 Morges

Major

Switzerland

Morges station occupies the northern shore of Lake Geneva between Lausanne and Geneva, on the busiest stretch of the Swiss Federal Railways network west of the Alps, under UIC code 8501037. InterRegio and suburban trains call throughout the day, and the narrow-gauge Morges to Bière and Cossonay line leaves from the same site towards the vineyards and foothills of the Jura. The lakeside town is known for its thirteenth-century castle, built under Savoyard rule, and for the tulip festival held each spring in the Parc de l'Indépendance. Both lie within a short walk of the platforms. The station stands near 46.51 degrees north, 6.49 degrees east, and follows Europe/Zürich time.
