very busy train station in the heart of Zurich

Zurich Main Station – Transportation Hub and Historic Monument Zurich Main Station is not only the largest but also one of the oldest train stations in Switzerland. With almost 3,000 arrivals and departures per day, it is also considered one of the busiest train stations in the world. Domestic and long-distance trains from neighboring France, Austria, Italy, and Germany characterize the terminus of Switzerland's very first railway line, the "Spanish Bun Railway." It is located directly adjacent to the Swiss National Museum on the edge of the old town. The Sihl River flows beneath its tracks and platforms, and its confluence with the Limmat River is also nearby. Zurich Main Station was originally built as a terminus station. However, there are now underground through-tracks for the S-Bahn (suburban railway). Another underground section for regular train traffic is under construction and is scheduled for completion in 2014. The building, designed by architect Jakob Friedrich Wanner, opened in 1871, replacing the old structure by Gustav Albert Wegmann from 1847. The monumental main entrance, designed as a triumphal arch, led into a magnificent interior with numerous courtyards and arcades, waiting rooms, and restaurants.

Zurich Main Station Zurich Main Station (abbreviated Zurich HB, also known as Zurich Main Station, until 1893 Zurich Station) in Zurich is the largest railway station in Switzerland. It is a major railway hub for trains from Switzerland and abroad. With an average of 461,000 passengers on weekdays (as of 2019) and around 3,000 train journeys per day, it is the busiest station on the Swiss Federal Railways network and also one of the busiest railway stations in Europe. The main station is located north of the old town. It has a total of 26 tracks for passenger traffic in four sections. The above-ground terminus station primarily serves long-distance trains. The underground stations Museumstrasse on the north side and Löwenstrasse on the south side are designed as through stations. The former serves exclusively Zurich S-Bahn trains, while the latter also serves long-distance trains. In addition, the terminus of the Sihltal-Zürich-Uetliberg Railway (SZU) is located beneath the adjacent station square to the south. The station sections are connected by the underground shopping arcade Shopville. To the west of the main station, the tracks extend for approximately four kilometers to Altstetten station. The main station was opened in 1847 as the terminus of Switzerland's first railway line, from Zurich to Baden, and is thus one of the oldest railway stations in the country. The station hall, designed by Jakob Friedrich Wanner in the Neo-Renaissance style and completed in 1871, replaced the original buildings. This hall no longer serves its original purpose, as rail traffic was moved to the adjacent train shed in 1930. The above-ground sections of the main station are listed as cultural assets of national importance and are protected as historical monuments. The underground station Museumstrasse opened in 1989. The S-Bahn service and the SZU station followed a year later. Finally, in 2014, the Löwenstrasse underground station was added.

There is also a watchtower ruin on the Rhinsberg. It was used by the canton of Zurich until the 19th century, but today only the stone foundations can be seen.

The late classicist Stadelhofen train station from 1894 was expanded in the 1990s as a result of the expansion of regional rail traffic. The Spanish architect Santiago Calatrava was commissioned with the project. Calatrava created an open, partly transparent roof made of concrete and steel for the platforms, which is modeled on the ribs of a bull.

From the 31.5 meter high steel construction from 1888 you have a great view over Winterthur and the local recreation area Stadtwald Eschenberg. You can reach the viewing platform via 167 steps. If the visibility is good, you can see the Alps from here.

Zurich's main train station isn't just a place for travelers. It also houses a shopping center with numerous shops and restaurants. From flower shops and bookstores to fashion boutiques, pharmacies, and supermarkets, you can find almost everything you need at ShopVille Zurich Main Station. The shops are open 365 days a year, including Sundays when most other shops in the city are closed. A total of 190 shops, restaurants, takeaways, and service providers are located on three floors of Zurich Main Station. https://www.zuerich.com/de/besuchen/shopping/shopville

History / Zurich Stadelhofen Station In 1894, the right-bank Zurich Lake Railway opened its railway line from Rapperswil via Meilen to Tiefenbrunnen and through the Riesbach Tunnel to Stadelhofen. The line ran through the Letten Tunnel to Letten Station and from there in a wide arc over the Limmat River to the main station. Since the introduction of the Zurich S-Bahn in 1990, the Letten Tunnel has been closed, and trains travel directly from the main station through the double-track Hirschengraben Tunnel to Stadelhofen. Two railway lines diverge at the three-track station. The single-track line runs through the old Riesbach Tunnel to Tiefenbrunnen and continues to Rapperswil. Since 1990, the double-track line has been in operation through the Zürichberg Tunnel to Stettbach and further towards Winterthur and Uster.
