Würzburg Hauptbahnhof (usually translated from German as Würzburg Central Station, short form: Würzburg Hbf) is the Hauptbahnhof for the city of Würzburg in the German state of Bavaria.

Regional and long-distance trains call at the station; it is the southern end of the Hanover-Würzburg high-speed rail line that carries InterCityExpress traffic. Most notably, connections exist to Frankfurt Hbf and Nürnberg Hbf. Other cities connected to the station are Stuttgart, Hof, Bamberg, Schweinfurt an Ansbach.

[edit] Shortcomings

The station is due to undergo modernisation soon, as its 1950s ticket hall is increasingly looking shabby. Although an important junction in the German rail system, Würzburg has neither an elevator nor an escalator, to the dismay of travelers with heavy luggage.
