歷史悠久的萊比錫火車站建于1907年，由來自“客運火車站和終端火車站”比賽的建筑師Lossow 和Kühne 作圖規(guī)劃。它是萊比錫最重要的建筑之一。1915年落成時它是歐洲最大的火車站。第二次世界大戰(zhàn)期間，它被轟炸毀壞得非常厲害，在1948年進行了重建，1965年完工。

Bahnhof Management und Entwicklungsgesellschaft mbH，Frankfurt讓萊比錫火車站再次成為城市生活中心的意圖是大型公開建筑比賽“萊比錫火車站的恢復發(fā)展”的原則，1994年HPP 從30名參賽者中獲得第一名，之后馬上受到項目實現的委任。

萊比錫火車站，歐洲最大的終端火車站，作為在“終點建筑服務中心”下的試驗性項目被重新開發(fā)。獨具魅力的大型覆蓋平臺橫向延伸270m。設計被限制使用現有的建筑：橫向平臺上的透鏡狀開孔成為在橫向平臺中既正式又實用的空間連接因素，同時也尊重建筑的歷史性構成。

橫向平臺的第三層被比作公共散步層，17500m2的樓面空間上建立起大約140家商店、咖啡館和餐館，都和設計寬大的樓梯、電梯、行人傳送帶以及自動扶梯相連。因此，此平臺有風雨商業(yè)街廊的特性，給鐵軌游客一種鐵軌和旅游休息的新概念。兩個玻璃電梯塔提供樓層中的豎向連接，同時延伸到橫向平臺。

1997年12月萊比錫火車站作為德國Bahn AG一個試驗性項目對外營業(yè)運行。

The historic Leipzig Main Railway Station was created in 1907 according to plans by the architects Lossow and Kühne from a competition entitled“Passenger Railway Station and Dead-End Station”.It is one of the most important buildings in Leipzig.At its inauguration in 1915， it was the largest railway station in Europe.During World War II， it was considerably damaged by bombing raids. Reconstruction began in 1948， and was completed in 1965.

The intention of Bahnhof Management und Entwicklungsgesellschaft mbH， Frankfurt， to make the Leipzig Railway Station the centre of urban life again was the basis of a large open architectural competition entitled“Redevelopment of the Leipzig Railway Station”，for which HPP was awarded first prize in 1994 from among 30 competitors， and immediately afterwards was commissioned with the realization of the project.

Leipzig Railway Station， Europe's largest dead-end station， was redeveloped as a pilot project under the name “Service Centre in the Terminal Building.”The fascination with large transverse roofed platforms of 270 m in length continues.The design was limited to using the existing building: A lens-shaped opening in the transverse platform became the formal and functional spatial connecting element in the transverse platform， while respecting the historical structure of the building.

On three levels of the transverse platform， which also are referred to as promenade decks， around 140 businesses， cafes， and restaurants with 17，500 sqm floor space were created， which are all interconnected with generously designed stairs， lifts， pedestrian conveyors and escalators.The platform thus has the character of a galleria， giving the rail traveller a new concept of rail and travel breaks.The vertical connection between the levels is provided by two glass lift towers that extend into the transverse platform.

On 12 November 1997，Leipzig Railway Station was opened as a pilot project of Deutsche Bahn AG and designated for its operation.
