Jesenice railway station

The station is located in the Sava Dolinka valley, close to the borders with Austria in the north and with Italy in the west.In addition to the station facilities, the building contains a bar, shops, and a restaurant.In 1906, it became a junction when two main lines of the Cisleithanian "New Alpine Railways" project were completed: the Bohinj Railway (Wocheinerbahn) to Trieste and the Karawanks Tunnel to Villach and the present-day Austrian Rosental line to Sankt Veit.The station was rebuilt between 1953 and 1955 upon plans designed by Stanislav Rohrman [sl] to replace a prewar structure destroyed by Allied air raids in early 1945, when the Upper Carniola region was occupied by German Wehrmacht forces.Architecturally, the new building is unusually distinctive for a train station in the area, being a stark modernist box faced in white marble and featuring hexagonal windows.
