Reichsbahndirektion Köln
Reichsbahndirektion Köln, Railway administration office in Cologne, Germany
The Reichsbahndirektion building stands at Konrad-Adenauer-Ufer with a monumental facade that extends along the Rhine River in central Cologne.
Constructed between 1906 and 1913 under architect Karl Biecker, this structure managed railway operations until its relocation to Bad Godesberg during World War II.
The building represents a period of German railway expansion, displaying architectural elements that characterize early 20th-century administrative buildings in North Rhine-Westphalia.
Following renovations completed in 2016, the building now houses modern office spaces, including the European Union Aviation Safety Agency.
The structure maintains its original facade while incorporating contemporary interior design, marking the transition from historical railway management to current administrative functions.
