The Spiegelau Station is an operating agency of the railway line Zwiesel-Grafenau . It is located in the Lower Bavarian municipality of Spiegelau in the Freyung-Grafenau district and is operated by DB Netz .

history

The facility was built in 1890 on the Zwiesel – Grafenau railway line and went into operation on September 11, 1890 when the line opened. In the 1980s, a planned closure of the line was discussed repeatedly. In 1993, the Regentalbahn took over passenger transport at Spiegelau station under the Waldbahn brand . The trains from Zwiesel to Grafenau serve the station every two hours.

From 1909 the narrow-gauge Spiegelau Forest Railway existed around the Spiegelau station for transporting timber. The last train ran on May 11, 1960, and the last track was dismantled on September 8.
