Bahnhof Ebernburg, Railway station in Bad Kreuznach, Germany.
Bahnhof Ebernburg is a railway station building in Bad Kreuznach featuring late classical design with distinctive red sandstone walls that catch the light in changing ways throughout the day. The structure sits elevated above the surrounding landscape, allowing views across the valley from its location.
The station opened in 1871 and originally served as a border crossing point between two German kingdoms on the Alsenztalbahn route. After passenger services ceased in 1977, the building found new purpose beyond rail transport.
Since 1979, the station building functions as Künstlerbahnhof, providing exhibition spaces for international artists to display their contemporary works and installations.
Visitors can access the building during scheduled opening times, so checking ahead prevents a wasted trip. The hilltop location means you may need to climb some steps or walk slightly uphill from the parking area.
The building operates as an art center displaying rotating exhibitions and installations by contemporary artists from around the world. This artistic transformation has brought creative activity back to a place where trains once connected communities.
