Alter Bahnhof Heilbronn, Neoclassical railway station in Heilbronn, Germany.
The Alter Bahnhof Heilbronn features a three-story sandstone structure with covered platforms and a design that incorporates round arch elements throughout the building.
Built in 1848 by architect Karl Etzel, the station served as the terminus for the Württemberg Northern Railway until its operational closure in 1874.
The station building demonstrates the architectural preferences of mid-19th century German railway construction through its neoclassical design and sandstone material selection.
The station included three platform tracks converging on a turntable, with waiting rooms and direct connections to post coach services to neighboring towns.
The building survived severe damage during World War II and underwent reconstruction in 1948 with a modified roof design, now housing the Kolping Educational Institute.
