Euskirchen station is an important transport hub with heavy commuter traffic in the German state of North Rhine-Westphalia.

The forecourt was planned as a park and construction began on a green space around a central war memorial, which was completed on 24 May 1903.

At the end of 1944 the entire site, including the station building, was destroyed permanently during violent and systematic bombing by the Allies.

[7] Euskirchen station is a major railway junction, and its lines have had to cope with a high volume of commuter traffic with heavy overcrowding of trains.

In order to handle traffic a new central railway station signal box was built for the equivalent of about €2.9 million.

The station building houses lockers, vending machines, a ticket office, a bookstore, a bakery and a McDonald's restaurant.

Parts of the western entrance building were demolished and a temporary bridge was erected at the eastern end of the platforms.
