Warburg Altstadt Station

The Warburg Altstadt station is a former railway station in Warburg on the Warburg–Sarnau railway line. The station building has been listed as a historic monument in Warburg since 1985.

As early as 1851, the then sparsely populated town of Warburg, with just under 4,000 inhabitants, was connected to the railway network via the line from Kassel and had received a substantial station building 1.5 km northwest of the town center in the following years. In 1853, the line was extended to Hamm, and in 1873, it was connected to the Upper Ruhr Valley Railway. Since the residence city of the Principality of Waldeck, Arolsen, did not have a railway connection at that time, a princely room was set up in both the Warburg station and the nearby Wrexen station.
