The building of the Metz railway station
Description:
The building of the Metz railway station is one of the attractions of Metz.
The structure was erected in 1905-1908 in the neo-Romanesque style by a team of assistants led by Berlin architect Jürgen Kröger. The length of the building is more than 300 meters. The centerpiece is the 40-meter-high clock tower, which is built from a variety of building materials, not just traditional olithic limestone. Since 1909, the tower has been converted into a bath for railway station workers.
Since 1975, the station has been officially recognized as a historical monument. Until now, the facade of the building has an excellent condition. In the train departure hall and the old station buffet there is all the former interior decoration.
