Bad Hersfeld station, Railway station and cultural heritage monument in Bad Hersfeld, Germany.
Bad Hersfeld station is a railway station in Bad Hersfeld, Germany, designated as a cultural heritage monument. The building features a central rectangular block with symmetrical wings and tall gables constructed from Jossa quarry sandstone blocks.
The station opened in 1866 with a temporary wooden structure, and architect Paul Rowald completed the permanent building in 1883. This phased construction approach reflected the growing demand for rail services in the region.
The Romanesque Revival facade draws design inspiration from medieval architecture found throughout Bad Hersfeld's old town. Visitors notice how the station's decorative elements echo the building styles that define the historic city center.
The station operates as a transport hub with five platforms offering regular connections to Frankfurt, Göttingen, and Treysa. Passengers can access these services to reach various destinations across the region.
The original temporary wooden station from 1866, called the Bude, remains standing south of the main building. This modest structure shows how rail transport initially started in this area.
