Strasbourg

Strasbourg has three passages that run under the platform and connect them to the main hall.

The central passage in the middle of the platform is accessible via stairs and escalators.

Access to the north and south passages via stairs and elevator/elevator.

If you arrive by train and are happy to use the stairs, just use the first stairs you see.

However, if you have luggage, etc., you must find a lift or escalator.

Similarly, when you enter Strasbourg Station, there are three routes to take the train.

If you walk from the city centre and use the main main entrance, you will see the passage leading to the train ahead.

This passage has stairs and escalators, and the train (platform/track) that leads to the train.

If you want/need to use the elevator to get into the train, they are available, but you will need to use either of the two alternative routes to the train.

You will find them at the end of the channel, which extend left and right from the main hall.

Görlitz ([ˈɡœʁlɪts] ; Upper Lusatian dialect: Gerlz, Gerltz, and Gerltsch, Polish: Zgorzelec, Upper Sorbian: Zhorjelc, Lower Sorbian: Zgórjelc, Czech: Zhořelec) is a town in the German federal state of Saxony. Located in the region of Lusatia on the Lusatian Neisse River, it is the second largest town of Lusatia after Cottbus, and the largest in Upper Lusatia. Seat of the district of Görlitz, Germany's easternmost district, its approximately 56,000 inhabitants also make Görlitz the sixth largest town of the Free State of Saxony. It lies opposite the Polish town of Zgorzelec, which was part of Görlitz until 1945. While not Lusatiophone itself, the town lies just east of the Sorbian-speaking parts of Lusatia. From 1815 until 1918, Görlitz belonged to the Province of Silesia in the Kingdom of Prussia, and later to the Province of Lower Silesia in the Free State of Prussia. It is the largest town of the former Province of Lower Silesia that lies west of the Oder-Neisse line and hence remains in Germany today. Thus it is both the most Silesian town, in terms of character, and the largest in Germany today. The town combines Lusatian and Silesian traditions as well as German and Sorbian culture. Görlitz has a rich architectural heritage. Many movie-makers have used the various sites as locations.
