🇩🇪 Duisburg Hbf

Major

Germany

Duisburg Hbf is the principal station of the Rhine-Ruhr port city of Duisburg, an important junction on the busy Rhine corridor where long-distance ICE and IC trains between Cologne, Dortmund, and Hamburg make regular stops. The station serves as the hub of Duisburg's urban rail network, with S-Bahn lines radiating toward Düsseldorf, Essen, and Oberhausen, and U-Bahn lines connecting the city centre, the inner suburbs, and the university district. As the home of the world's largest inland harbour and major logistics hub, Duisburg's station also reflects the industrial heritage that has shaped this corner of the Rhine-Ruhr metropolitan area.
