Leipzig Hauptbahnhof

Leipzig Hauptbahnhof contains over 140 retail shops across three floors, combining transportation services with extensive commercial opportunities in one location.

The central station opened its doors on December 4, 1915, following a construction period that started in 1902 under architects William Lossow and Max Kühne.

The station building represents a technical monument of Saxony, featuring architectural elements that demonstrate early 20th-century German engineering and design principles.

The station serves both regional and international rail connections while offering shopping facilities that operate seven days per week from early morning until late evening.

Leipzig Hauptbahnhof earned the title of Station of the Year in 2011, recognizing its dual function as a major transportation hub and commercial center.
