Ebersbach station

Ebersbach (Sachs) station is a railway complex in the border region between Germany and the Czech Republic, featuring a historic station building, a goods shed, and a water tower. The site sits at about 350 meters elevation and displays the classic layout of a 19th-century railway facility.

The station opened on November 1, 1873, and created important transportation links between Germany and the Czech border regions. It played a key role in cross-border railway traffic between the two countries.

The station building displays German railway architecture from the 19th century and is now protected as a cultural heritage monument.

The station is no longer in regular passenger service after its closure in December 2010, but occasionally operates for chartered trains. Visitors should check ahead since services run sporadically.

The water tower was an essential part of the railway complex and supplied water to steam locomotives during their early years of operation. This structure illustrates the technical infrastructure needed to run historical railways.
