Berlin Görlitzer Bahnhof
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
For the U-Bahn station, see Görlitzer Bahnhof (Berlin U-Bahn).
Görlitzer Bahnhof was the name of the Berlin railway terminus for the mainline link between the capital, Cottbus in Brandenburg and Görlitz in Lower Silesia (since 1945 Saxony). It stood overlooking Spreewaldplatz in the Outer Luisenstadt, the eastern part of Kreuzberg but wartime bombing and Cold War tensions led to its closure and eventual demolition.
