The Bahnhof Görlitz - or Görlitz train station - from 1847 designed in what is known in German as Jugendstil or roughly what in English is called baroque, is one of many nice old buildings in that town. The first two photos show the interior of hall of the Emfangsgebäude or reception building, the third a view of it from the platform level, and the fourth from the street (opposite direction). It is located about 500 metres west of the Neisse River which since 1945 has formed the border between Germany and Poland. Photos by Geoff Churchman (first three) and Paweł Jakubczyk (fourth).
