Bad Kleinen

Bad Kleinen is a railway junction station in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern where multiple lines converge to link Wismar, Lübeck, Schwerin, and Rostock. The site features several platforms connected through an underground tunnel system to the main building.

The station was established in 1848 as part of the expansion of the Hagenow Land-Schwerin railway to Wismar and became an important regional transport hub. Since then, the facility has evolved several times to meet changing railway transportation needs.

The station building reflects the style of classical German railway architecture and is protected as a cultural monument today. The way passengers move through and gather here has shaped the rhythm of daily life for generations.

All platforms are reached through an underground tunnel system, as there are no direct connections from the main building to the tracks. Visitors should allow extra time to navigate this underground passage.

The station underwent major renovations from 2016 to 2018, transforming from a full-service facility into a streamlined operational hub. These upgrades happened while the station remained fully operational, continuing to serve thousands of daily passengers.
