Versailles Château Rive Gauche station is a terminal railway station serving the city of Versailles, a wealthy suburb located west of Paris, France. The station is located at the western end of the Rive Gauche railway (English: Left Bank), named because it operates on the left bank of the Seine. The station is the closest to the Palace of Versailles.

The station is operated by SNCF, the French national railway. It is served by RER C line of the Paris Region's express suburban rail system, the Réseau Express Régional.

In February 2012, "Château" was added to the station name to help navigate tourists to the station closest to the Château de Versailles (English: Palace of Versailles).

The station is one of several in Versailles, but sees fewer trains than Versailles Chantiers station.
