    From here the trains go to Freiburg and the buses to the French Colmar.

    With half-hourly service to Freiburg.

    The Breisach Railway ran from Breisach to Colmar, France, until the Breisach railway bridge over the Rhine was destroyed in 1945.

    The rather stately and, by today's standards, somewhat oversized station building of Breisach was built in 1913/14 from Kaiserstuhl basalt (volcanic rock). It replaced the temporary barracks that had been in use since the opening of the Breisach Railway.

    For 80 years, ever since the German Wehrmacht blew up the railway bridge over the Rhine, this has been the end of the line. The current road bridge was actually built as a replacement, but it wasn't used for rail traffic; instead, it was used for road traffic. What a political blunder!

    The station is built from volcanic rock from the Kaiserstuhl region—take a close look! The station building isn't boarded up and still serves its purpose.

    On the west side, there's a proper inn right on the platform with a rose garden. It's still waiting to be discovered.
