Bochum-Dahlhausen

Bochum-Dahlhausen is an active passenger station in the Dahlhausen district of Bochum, whose listed terminal building dates from the First World War era and stands out for its Jugendstil detailing among the Ruhr region's functional railway architecture. Directly adjacent, the Eisenbahnmuseum Bochum — one of Germany's largest open-air railway museums — occupies the former locomotive depot and preserves engines and rolling stock spanning more than a century of rail history. The museum draws rail enthusiasts and families from across the region, making this modest station a destination well beyond its commuter function.
