Guided Story
Standing here, consider the 1872 opening of the Hannoverscher Bahnhof. This terminal station was once the endpoint for all passenger trains crossing the Elbe from the south. Until 1906, trains arrived here before the main station took over. Now, a sculpture stands as a memorial to honor the historical significance of this site. Look southeast, and you'll find the denk.mal Hannoverscher Bahnhof, which further commemorates this place. West of you lies Lohsepark, offering a green escape nearby.
