How to shorten the waiting time

The Ober-Grafendorf station building has been converted into a brewery building. The renovation of the station building began in the fall of 2013 and Wolfgang Stix created Austria's first station brewery. The location is a popular backdrop for various celebrations and seminars on the subject of beer brewing can also be held here. Special emphasis is placed on sourcing regional products - even more so than before.

The history

Since Ober-Grafendorf station first opened on July 4, 1989, there have been numerous conversions and extensions. Workshops, halls and numerous other facilities were gradually added to the station, which originally consisted of just a reception building and the warehouse, until the entire workshop was relocated to St. Pölten. Over the years, the tracks have also been continuously renovated. The station has only been as it is today since 1999, when freight traffic on the line was completely discontinued.
