Hundertwasser and Uelzen Bahnhof
As a lover of the work of the Austrian artist Friedensreich Hundertwasser (1928-2000), I couldn't pass up a trip from Hamburg to Magdeburg without stopping for an hour or two in Uelzen to see this unique railway station. The station is also special because incorporated in the roof are solar panels. It is one of the largest solar plants in Northern Germany. Hundertwasser designed his buildings to be ecologically sound and environmentally friendly as well as artistically pleasing with the use of colour, columns and very few straight lines!

The station interior contains (on two levels) a cafe, travel shop, gift shops and an art shop .. all of course in the same Hundertwasser style.
