Fellbach station

Fellbach station is a railway stop with three platform tracks along the line connecting Cannstatt and Waiblingen. The building features pale sandstone walls and rounded arches that define its appearance in the local area.

This station was built in 1861 by the Royal Württemberg State Railways as the area's first rail connection. It marked a key moment when the valley became linked to the growing railway network.

The station building reflects 19th-century regional construction methods, with its rounded arches and pale sandstone facade. It demonstrates how railway stations served not just as transport hubs but as significant landmarks in the local townscape.

The S2 and S3 lines of the Stuttgart S-Bahn network connect the station regularly to Stuttgart and nearby towns. The station sits in a central location that is easy to reach on foot from the town center.

In its early years, the building served a double purpose as both railway station and local post office. Later, postal services moved to a different location, leaving the building to focus on its transport role.
