Hattersheim am Main station, Railway station in Hattersheim, Germany.
Hattersheim am Main station is a railway facility in the town of Hattersheim west of Frankfurt am Main. The station has three tracks, with one platform next to the main building and an island platform serving passenger operations.
The station opened in 1839 as part of the first railway line built in Hesse. The neoclassical building was constructed in 1842, marking a turning point in how people and goods moved through the region.
The station building displays neoclassical features that distinguish it from the industrial surroundings of the region. Its appearance continues to define the character of the town and reflects the importance railways held in shaping local development.
The station is served by local train services that connect to larger cities in the region. Ticket counters are located inside the building, and the platforms are designed to be accessible for passengers with mobility needs.
Architect Paul Camille von Denis designed the building with refined details that were typical of 19th-century urban development. This architectural care is still visible today in the facades and ornamental elements.
