Korso railway station

Vantaa

Why visit

A small station complex that grew up in stages along the Helsinki–Hämeenlinna railway, with a whole town forming around it. Pause in the park-like station grounds.

Look for: At the edge of the high cliff, find the 1901 residential barracks alongside the wooden station building from the 1910s — two different eras side by side.

About this site

Korson rautatieasema on yksi 1862 liikenteelle avatun Helsinki – Hämeenlinna radan myöhemmin liikenteelle avatuista asemista. Pieni ja tyypillinen asemakokonaisuus on rakentunut rautatierakentamiselle ominaisesti vaiheittain. Korson asemalla on 1910-luvun puisen asemarakennuksen lisäksi korkean kallion reunalla sijaitseva, rakentamisajalleen tyypillinen asuinkasarmi vuodelta 1901 ja talousrakennus. Puistomaisen asema-alueen ympärille on muotoutunut taajama.
