Bad Hersfeld station

Bad Hersfeld station features a central rectangular block with symmetrical wings and high gables constructed from Jossa quarry sandstone blocks.

The station opened in 1866 with a temporary wooden structure before architect Paul Rowald completed the permanent building in 1883.

The station's Romanesque Revival architecture incorporates design elements from medieval buildings found in Bad Hersfeld's old town.

The station serves as a category 3 transport hub with five platforms connecting Frankfurt, Göttingen, and Treysa through regular rail services.

The original wooden temporary station building from 1866, called the Bude, remains preserved south of the main station structure.
