Jesenice railway station Jesenice railway station (Slovenia)

The Jesenice railway station (Slovene: Železniška postaja Jesenice) is a railway station in the town of Jesenice, Slovenia. It is the last station before the Austrian border. Destinations served from the station are:

• Rosenbach (Slovene: Podrožca) and Villach (Slovene: Beljak) on the mainline to the north (both in Austria, via Karavanke tunnel)
• Kranj and Ljubljana on the mainline to the south-east
• Bohinj and Nova Gorica on the Bohinj line to the south-west

The station building was built between 1953 and 1955 to replace a prewar structure destroyed by Allied air raids in early 1945. Architecturally, the new building is unusually distinctive for a train station in the area, being a stark modernist box faced in white marble and featuring hexagonal windows.

In addition to the station facilities, the building contains a bar, shops, and a restaurant. The two boarding platforms are connected by an underground pedestrian tunnel.
