Daun train station

Daun train station is a former railway facility featuring three platform tracks and stonework characteristic of early 1900s construction. The building displays the craftsmanship of that era through its stone structures and traditional architectural elements typical of regional German stations.

The facility opened in 1895 and served two different railway lines that connected communities across the Eifel region. Operations ceased in 1991, marking the end of nearly a century of railway service at this location.

The building reflects the importance of railways when they connected small villages to larger towns across the region. Visitors can still observe the details that show how central this station was to daily travel and trade in the area.

The building is located near the town center of Daun in the Vulkaneifel area and is accessible on foot. Keep in mind that it no longer operates as an active station, so viewing it from the exterior is the standard way to experience the site.

The structure dates from an era when railway builders designed stations with meticulous attention to detail, visible in every aspect of the construction. It remains one of the few well-preserved stations in the region that still shows how these facilities originally looked when they were built.
