Riesa railway station, Railway station in Riesa, Germany
Riesa railway station is a train hub with ten platforms split between through-lines and terminal configurations. It serves as a junction point for regional and long-distance services connecting the two main city routes.
The station opened in 1838 as part of the railway line connecting two major Saxon cities. It grew to become an important junction for the region's train traffic during the 19th century.
The station building is a protected monument that displays 19th-century architecture typical of Saxon railway construction. Walking through it, you can see the design choices and building methods that were standard for major train stations of that era.
The station is easy to navigate with clear signage and digital displays showing departure and arrival information. Staff can help you with connections and general questions about local train services.
From 1889 to 1924, a horse-drawn tram connected the station forecourt directly to the town center at Rathausplatz. This service made it easy for passengers to reach the city without needing other transport.
