Praha-Hostivař

Rebuilt completely in 2015-2016. It is new but not modern in concept or architecture. A bit of walk to bus/tram stops. Not much facilities, just ticket office open during business hours. There is an old school station pub/restaurant in the old station building 200 m away (shorter across the tracks ;-) ).

Beautifully awarded new station, part of a new corridor.

The building is missing again. 15 years ago I would give 5 *. : /

The station near the old building was moved about 200 meters to the east! On the new site are built 2 ramps and subway accessible from both sides of the railway line. The newly built stop is modern, equipped with check-in boards showing the departure of the train. There are no personal offices or superb buildings. In the slope, there was a waiting room and a train station. It is accessible from the underpass to the south.

The Prague - Hostivař railway station is located on the double-track line number 221 Prague - Benešov u Prahy, from Benešov it continues as a single-track line number 220 to České Budějovice. The railway of Emperor František Josef from Vienna via České Budějovice and Benešov to Prague began operation on December 14, 1871. At that time, there was only a stop on a single-track line in Hostivař. The following year, it was allowed to load and unload goods at the Hostivař stop, but the station was not established until 1882. The station building dates from 1905 and is completely identical to the station building in Uhříněves, which is 10 years younger. Today, on peak working days, passenger trains run at regular intervals of 30 minutes and off-peak 60 minutes, which allows passengers to easily remember train departure times.
