The building dates from 1915 and was restored to its original condition in the 1990s. It is colossal: the front façade is almost 300 m (960 feet) long and the huge glass roof larger than three soccer fields. Back in 1915, it served the Saxon and Prussian railway companies together but separately, meaning the facilities are doubled, from waiting rooms to grand staircases. With 150 shops and restaurants, it is also the largest shopping center in town. All major buses and trams depart from Willy Brandt Platz in front of the station.
