The Warburg (Westfalen) station is located on the northeastern outskirts of the city Warburg in North Rhine-Westphalia .
history
In 1851 Warburg received a rail connection when the Kassel – Warburg railway line was opened. In 1853 the Hamm – Paderborn railway was extended via Altenbeken to Warburg. Another railway line was added in 1873 when the line from Bestwig to Warburg was extended. This line was built by the Bergisch-Märkische Eisenbahn , and so it ended south of the previous station of the Royal Westphalian Railway Company , so that an island station was created. In 1890, the line to Arolsen was added, which was directed around the city from the south, crossed under the two existing railway lines and then ended in the northern part of the station. As an island station, the station was one of the last remaining in early railway history in Westphalia, alongside the Minden station .
In the meantime, the southern part of the station has been dismantled and the northern part of the station has been reduced to three platform tracks and an alternative level east of the platforms. To the west of the station, a multi-track section of the station for goods traffic was created, which still exists today and is also used to park trains.
In 1970 the Altenbeken – Kassel line was electrified.
Passenger traffic to Arolsen was discontinued in 1967, freight traffic was also discontinued in 1977 and then shut down. In 1983 the line was dismantled.
Reception building
The today listed entrance building from 1852/53 was designed by Julius Eugen Ruhl and had a prince's room . The building was sold to a local doctor at the end of 2011 for the symbolic price of one euro. It was rebuilt in 2012/13. After fifteen months of renovation, it has the historical stepped gable with 16 lanterns again. In addition to toilets and a bistro for travelers, a 120 square meter Buddhist meditation center with temple, meditation room, dining room and kitchen in the east wing of the ground floor was built on the 840 square meters of floor space on the first and second floors . An official inauguration ceremony took place on June 28, 2014. On this occasion, Deutsche Bahn christened an ICE-T train with the name Hanseatic City of Warburg . On June 29, 2014 the solemn inauguration of the Buddhist temple took place.
