The station hall

Hagen Hauptbahnhof (usually translated from German as Hagen Central Station, short form: Hagen Hbf) is the Hauptbahnhof for the city of Hagen in western Germany. It is an important rail hub for the southeastern Ruhr area, offering regional and long distance connections.

The station was opened in 1848 and is one of the few stations in the Ruhr valley to retain its original station hall, which dates back to 1910.

[edit] Operational usage

The station serves as an important link between long distance and commuter services; the InterCityExpress lines linking Cologne and Berlin call at the station as well as various InterCity and EuroCity services.

Hagen Hbf lies within the area of the Verkehrsverbund Rhein-Ruhr transport association and is served by several RegionalExpress and RegionalBahn lines as well as by two S-Bahn services of the Rhein-Ruhr S-Bahn network.
