Wien Hernals railway station

Wien Hernals is an active railway station in the northwestern part of Vienna with two side platforms and multiple railway tracks. The facility serves suburban rail traffic and connects the district to other parts of the city.

The station opened in 1898 as part of Vienna's modernization of suburban rail transport under architects like Otto Wagner. Its construction reflected the city's forward-thinking approach to transportation planning at that time.

The station building stands as a protected monument showing the characteristic design style of Vienna's railway expansion era. The architecture reflects the approach that shaped transport infrastructure across this part of the city.

The station is directly accessible from Hernalser Hauptstraße and well connected with other transport modes. Visitors find line S45 service here, which runs to the city center and other districts.

The station building remains in active use today despite its protected monument status and original structural preservation. This blend of historical value with modern transit operations makes it a distinctive place in the city's transportation network.
