Cergy-Préfecture is a railway station in Cergy, in the departement of the Val-d'Oise, France. The station was opened on and receives trains from Paris-Saint-Lazare as well as the RER A.
The station is underground and has two platforms. The entire area above and around the station is built up and the département council has its offices next to the station (hence the station's name).
