This is not least due to the whisper clinker specially developed by the local Wienerberger brickworks located right next to the train station - a clinker brick in the typical brick red that adorns the striking facade of the station building. But not only the typical regional architectural form is remarkable - the brick also has a sound-absorbing effect and thus serves as a soundproofing element.OBB project manager Thomas Schfmann It is great that the train station and thus OBB receive a national award after the international one.
