About this site
The brick station building in Hämeenlinna, the terminal station of the country's first railway line, is located close to Vanajavesi at the eastern edge of the city. The current, second station building in order, was completed in 1921 according to the plans of architect Thure Höllström. The architecture of the red-brick building is characterised by a Baroque-influenced roof form and details. The building's lower wing was extended in the 1960s. The station squares are decorated with lime tree avenues. The station area contains a small brick storage building, two residential buildings, and a rare 1870s wooden carriage shed with an associated contemporaneous brick locomotive shed. East of the marshalling yard is a large brick warehouse from the 1860s. Vanajavesi separates the station from the city centre. The railway station area is part of Hämeenlinna's national urban park.
