Ansbach station named Station of the Year 2026
Ansbach station has been named the ‘Station of the Year 2026’ by the transport alliance Allianz pro Schiene. The award, decided by a nine-member jury of transport and tourism experts, recognizes the station for its modern design, high-quality service, and excellent connectivity.
Following a multi-year renovation, the station features a light-filled waiting hall with stylish ceiling lights and curved wooden benches. The jury highlighted the station’s accessibility, noting that platforms and underpasses are fully barrier-free.
Connectivity was a major factor in the decision. The station offers easy access to bus services, car parking, and extensive bicycle facilities, including covered and lockable bike boxes. Additional amenities include luggage lockers, modern public toilets, and dining options featuring regional products. This marks the eighth time a station in Bavaria has received this title.
