Hauptbahnhof Innsbruck (Central Station)

Südtiroler Platz 2, 6020 Innsbruck, A
Architecture: Riegler Riewe Architekten (2001-2004) Builder-owner: ÖBB Open to the public: yes The two giant frescoes by Max Weiler (1954/55) have been transferred from the old station hall to the new building.

A long-stretching red cover encloses the Innsbruck Central Station; its main level had been lowered down to be directly accessible from the underground parking lot. The spacious grand hall with a gallery houses the railway’s customer area, shops, cafés and restaurants. The perforated concrete cover engulfs all the building’s functions and allows quick and furtive, filtered, as it were, glances from the platforms into the city.

Südtiroler Platz (Südtirol Square)

Südtiroler Platz, 6020 Innsbruck, A
Architecture: Riegler Riewe Architekten (2004) Builder-owner: ÖBB-Infrastruktur AG, Stadt Innsbruck

At the same time the Central Station was re-built, the station square was re-designed. Separate lanes for car traffic and public transport, and an underground parking lot directly accessible from the station hall make sure that different modes of transport do not interfere with one another. The asphalt’s artificial red color nicely relates to the station building.
