Dunedin Railway Station, New Zealand

The Dunedin Railway Station is the grandest ‘Gingerbread House’ you’ll ever see.

Going back to 1906, this magnificent Flemish Renaissance-style edifice increasingly entraps the public. White Oamaru limestone facings on black basalt rock, creates a timeless and dramatic air.

The grandiose style and rich embellishments earned architect George Troup the nickname of Gingerbread George.

The railway line no longer exists as such – it’s now the Otago Central Rail Trail constructed for walkers, cyclists and horse riders.
