Lörrach Hauptbahnhof, Railway station and cultural heritage monument in Lörrach, Germany.
Lörrach Hauptbahnhof is an active railway station in Lörrach, Baden-Württemberg, with two platforms serving regional routes across the surrounding area. The listed 19th-century building sits in a valley setting near the center of town.
The station opened in 1862 as part of the expansion of the Baden railway network in the second half of the 19th century. It connected Lörrach to the main lines along the High Rhine and helped shape the town's growth over the following decades.
The station building dates from the 19th century and is listed as a cultural heritage monument, reflecting the style of the former Baden State Railway. The old facade details are still visible to anyone passing through today.
The station is within walking distance of the town center and is easy to navigate thanks to clear signage. Arriving a few minutes early is a good idea, as trains in this area tend to depart on time and connections can be tight.
The station sits just a short distance from the Swiss border, allowing direct train travel into Switzerland without changing stations. This makes it one of the few German stations where a cross-border journey starts directly from a listed heritage building.
