Dresden Central Station, Central railway station in Dresden, Germany
Dresden Central Station spans two levels with an island building between tracks and multiple train platforms covered by glass fibre membrane roofs.
The station, inaugurated on April 23, 1898, replaced the previous Bohemian station following the Saxon government's railway nationalization program of the late 19th century.
The station building combines elements of historicism architecture by Ernst Giese and Arwed Roßbach with modern additions by Norman Foster during its 2000 renovation.
The facility serves 60,000 daily passengers with connections to Prague, Berlin, Budapest, and Vienna, plus regional trains, trams, and buses at Wiener Platz.
The station earned the Station of the Year award in 2014 for its innovative design featuring Teflon-coated glass fibre membranes that enhance natural light distribution.
