Horn station

The station Horn, preserved in traditional Austrian construction, is a so-called through station. Connected to the Kamptalbahn there are 2 platform tracks on site, as well as another track without platform and also a siding to the Horn warehouse.

A heated waiting room and toilets complete the needs of a medium-sized station. To the north is a Park & Ride facility with approximately 30 car parking spaces.

Connections:

• Regional trains Sigmundsherberg - Horn
• Regional trains via Krems/Donau or St. Pölten Hbf (2h intervals)

Worth seeing

The Horn Municipal Museum is only a 15-minute walk from the station. The archaeological museum permanently exhibits finds of the prehistoric researcher Prof. Josef Höbarth as well as the agricultural collection of Ernst Mader in a specially equipped barn hall. Exciting special exhibitions throughout promise varied knowledge in an appealingly designed space.

History

Actually, a connection of the railway station Horn to the line of the Franz Josefs Bahn was planned, but was never realized due to objections by the population. Only when the economic upswing was recognized by the obvious enrichment along other railway lines, one strove also in Horn for a connection to the railway. Finally, in the course of the construction of the Kamptalbahn, a connection was created. When in the 1980s again and again the talk was to close the Kamptal line and thus also to close the passenger service, this could fortunately be successfully prevented - also by the commitment of the population.
