Station Payerbach-Reichenau

Payerbach-Reichenau station was opened in 1854 as a stop on the Semmering Railway. It was extensively revitalized between 2006 and 2008. The listed building was largely preserved.

In the first half of the 20th century, numerous summer visitors started their Rax excursions here. There was even a separate waiting room for the Kaiser family. From 1926 to 1963, the narrow-gauge Höllentalbahn railroad also ran to Hirschwang an der Rax. This has been in operation again at weekends since 1979 - as a nostalgic museum train.
