Former main water station of the „Südbahn“ in Welsberg

Welsberg/Monguelfo, Welsberg-Taisten/Monguelfo-Tesido
Former Southern Railway water station – a historic technical landmark from the Austro-Hungarian era.
from center

The former water station in Welsberg, with its octagonal tower, is a remarkable technical monument from the Austro-Hungarian period. Inaugurated in 1871, it served as a “fuel stop” for steam locomotives. Together with the depot and railway houses built in 1926, it forms a rare ensemble of historical railway engineering, protected as a heritage site since 2004.
