Mürzzuschlag railway station

Mürzzuschlag railway station is a protected railway station located in the Styrian region at 681 meters elevation. It connects multiple rail lines running through the Alpine landscape and serves regional and long-distance routes.

The station was founded in 1844 and represented an important step in Austrian railway infrastructure during the initial expansion of the rail network. It was part of the early network development that improved communication across the Alps.

The station building displays architectural features from the 19th century, showing construction methods typical of Austrian railway stations from that era. These historical details remain visible in the structure today.

The station offers regular connections through the Styria S-Bahn system to major cities and regional destinations. Being located in the mountains means visitors should expect hilly terrain and changeable weather conditions.

Adjacent to the station stands the Southern Railway Museum, which displays an extensive collection of locomotives and railway equipment housed in two preserved locomotive halls. One hall dates from 1870 and the other from 1919, documenting different periods of railway development.
