Mühlthal station

Mühlthal (Oberbay) station is a railway building in Starnberg with unplastered brick walls and a shallow hipped roof topped by an attic story. The roof level includes small round windows that define its external appearance.

The Royal Bavarian State Railways opened this station on 16 September 1854 as a temporary end point for trains from Munich. It served an important role in the region's early railway expansion.

The building was designed by Friedrich Bürklein in Maximilian style and is protected as a heritage monument today. Its architectural features shape how the place looks and reflect 19th-century construction traditions.

The site is best reached on foot and works well for brief visits by hikers and nature lovers. Its location near lakes and walking trails makes it a practical starting point for exploring the surrounding area.

The building served as a filming location for the first episode of the crime series Derrick in 1974 and became part of television history. This link to a notable television work makes it interesting for fans of the series.
