Area surrounding the railway station of Prien

Prien, DE

The square in front of the railway station serves as the entrance to the center of town and the touristic region of Chiemgau. The essential objective of the concept is to establish a better connection to the eastern areas of the city: The existing pedestrian underpass will become an appealing hub between the historic city center, the new districts as well as Chiemsee.

The concept, with its pedestrian square, neighboring historic center with upscale business and residential offering, defines a new "railway station culture". The historic station building will also be integrated into the concept: Wooden wing constructions will accommodate kiosks, shops and waiting areas, at the same time serving as a noise protection area for the entire station area.
