Reconstruction of the railway station

Ka­pos­vár Ra­il­way Sta­ti­on has been a lis­ted buil­ding since 2011. Its de­par­tu­re buil­ding was built in 1900 to the de­signs of Fe­renc Pfaff. The buil­ding in Ka­pos­vár also ser­ved as a model for ot­hers in Szat­már­né­me­ti (Satu Mare, Ro­ma­nia) and Ver­sec (Vršac, Ser­bia). The lat­ter buil­ding re­ta­ins the most of the ori­gi­nal in­te­ri­or mo­tifs, and these were used as an aut­hen­tic sour­ce of in­for­ma­ti­on when re­se­ar­ch­ing the de­ta­ils of the res­tora­ti­on work. This was the frst op­por­tunity for a comp­re­hen­sive re­no­va­ti­on and res­tora­ti­on of the al­most 120-year-old buil­ding. As a part of this, the buil­ding, its façade and pas­sen­ger areas re­gained their ori­gi­nal form and were res­tor­ed to their for­mer glory. The ope­ra­ti­o­nal areas were ex­ten­ded and mo­der­ni­sed. The nar­row pub­lic squ­a­re in front of the buil­ding was also re­born.
