A parking space has been created for a further 24 bicycles in the adjacent Bike & Ride station.

Colourful plates and cups

A 10-minute walk takes you to a colourful milestone in Lower Austrian history. In the Wilhelmsburg Tableware Museum, visitors gain an insight into the history of the creation of the famous Lilien porcelain. In addition to the popular permanent exhibition, there are always varied special exhibitions by young designers or on current topics. Furthermore, a well-equipped ceramics studio has been set up within the historic walls, where courses are offered on a regular basis.

History

Under the company name "k. k. private niederösterreichische Südwestbahn" the "Leobersdorf-St. Pölten Eisenbahngesellschaft" bought the railway line at that time. However, the construction of the line was so financially costly that the construction and operation had to be taken over by the state. The opening of the line took place in 1893.
