The station opened its doors in 1847 when the Rouen–Le Havre section of the
Paris–Le Havre railway opened to service. The line previously had its terminus at
Rouen Rive-Gauche. With the increase in traffic, the construction of the new station on the north bank of the
River Seine started. The station building was designed in
Art Nouveau style by architect
Adolphe Dervaux, with commissioned sculpture by
Camille Lefèvre. The station was inaugurated on 4 July 1928 by French President
Gaston Doumergue. At first named Rue Verte, the station was later renamed as Rive-Droite. In 1994 an interchange was built to serve
Rouen métro. == Services ==
