Twann railway station (German: Bahnhof Twann, French: Gare de Douanne) is a railway station in the municipality of Twann-Tüscherz, in the Swiss canton of Bern. It is an intermediate stop on the standard gauge Jura Foot line of Swiss Federal Railways.[1]
The station has been modernized between 2022 and 2024, improving accessibility and creating a stop for the Postbus line to the village of Ligerz and La Neuveville. To allow for the commissioning of the Ligerz Tunnel (estimated 2029), the station building will be partially demolished and the station plaza rebuilt.[5]
