Marxgrün station

The old Marxgrün station was located on the Hof–Bad Steben railway which was opened in 1887. It was the terminus on that line until 1898. From 1901 it became the junction for the railway line through the Höllen valley to Gera and, later, also Saalfeld. With the end of the Second World War the Höllen Valley railway losts its pan-regional significance and it was completely closed in the early 1980s. Today a halt has been built on the site of the former station which is part of the Regionalbahn from Hof to Bad Steben. The village of Marxgrün has been a district of the town of Naila since 1978.
On 1 June 1887 this Lokalbahn route in the eastern part of the Franconian forest Frankenwald was opened by the Royal Bavarian State Railways . Railway services started from the new Hof Hauptbahnhof, where there were connexions to Munich, Nuremberg, Würzburg, Berlin, Leipzig and Dresden. This standard gauge branch line reaches its terminus near the village of Marxgrün running via Selbitz and Naila.
