Old train station in Katowice, Station building in Katowice, Poland

The railway station building features neoclassical elements combined with modernist architectural details, displaying intricate stonework and symmetrical window arrangements throughout its structure.

The station, initially constructed in 1859 and substantially expanded in 1906, played a central role in connecting Katowice to major European cities like Vienna and Berlin.

The station building reflects the industrial heritage of Upper Silesia, marking the period when Katowice transformed from a small maintenance stop into a major urban center.

Located on Dworcowa Street, the former station stands 300 meters from the current railway station and requires preservation work before public access becomes possible.

The station's construction directly influenced Katowice's development, leading to the establishment of Baildon Steelworks and numerous coal mines in the surrounding area.
