Introduction
The station, designed by Berlin architect Jurgen Kröger, was commissioned by Wilhelm II in the Rhenish neo-Romanesque style. It was built to transport goods and civilians, but also, for strategic reasons, to move as many soldiers as possible in the shortest possible time. This prestigious 300 m-long building (1905-1908) houses the emperor's apartments and reception pavilion, reception halls, galleries and service areas.
