Gerstungen station, Railway station and heritage monument in Gerstungen, Germany
The railway facility stands at the western border of Thuringia, serving as a connection point on the Halle-Bebra railway line since 1849.
During the German division, this station operated as a critical border crossing point between East and West Germany, managing both passenger and freight transportation.
The station building exhibits architectural elements from the mid-19th century, representing the railway construction methods of the German railway expansion period.
The RB6 service, operated by Cantus Verkehrsgesellschaft, provides hourly connections at Gerstungen station during weekdays for regional travel needs.
The station complex included separate Thuringian and Hessian terminals until 1871, when the Prussian state railways unified the network operations.
