Simbach

Simbach train station is a border facility in Bavaria with multiple tracks arranged across its platform areas. The facility connects German and Austrian railway networks and handles both regional and long-distance services.

The station opened in 1871 and created an important connection between Bavaria and Upper Austria at that time. Since then it has served as a permanent fixture in railway traffic between the two regions.

The station building displays typical features of Bavarian railway construction and is still used by travelers from Germany and Austria. The place has retained its character as a border crossing point and serves as a daily meeting point for people from both countries.

The station building is easy to reach and displays arrival and departure information on its boards. Visitors should check current schedules before arriving since connections vary depending on the time of day.

The station sits at the German-Austrian border and is operated by two different railway companies. This dual operation makes it a place where you literally transition into two different railway systems.
