Anhalter Bahnhof

The taxi stopped next to the russet-colored brick front entrance of Anhalter Bahnhof. Built in the 1870s, the station had the tallest hall in the world and was once known as the Gateway to the South. If she was staying in Germany, she was probably heading for Leipzig or Munich, but trains left Anhalter Bahnhof for as far away as Athens and Rome. I would not know where she went unless I watched her buy a ticket and climb onto a train.
