Grand inspiration

Article Abstract:

The Dresden Hauptbahnhof, the city of Dresden's main railway station, was damaged during World War II bombing raids and has since had inadequate maintenance and repairs. The station was restored by a team of German and British architects to its Wilhelmine-style grandeur. With planning that started in 1997, it was completed in November 2006, in time for the 800th anniversary of the founding of Dresden.
