    Hiking

    Gelsenkirchen station was opened in 1847 together with the Cöln-Mindener Eisenbahn.
    Since then, the main station has been fundamentally rebuilt twice. The first time in 1904, because the capacity of the old station was no longer sufficient. Since then it has been a central station in the German railway network. In the course of this construction work, the tracks that were previously at ground level were raised so that the increasing traffic from Gelsenkirchen to Bochum could pass the main station unhindered.

    The Wilhelminian main station was demolished in the 1970s. It was a similar building to the courthouse opposite today, which used to house the main post office. Now the Gelsenkirchen main station is an architectural nothingness.
