Do German train stations have free WIFI?

Deutsche Bahn offers passengers and visitors 30 minutes of free Wi-Fi at 127 stations throughout Germany.



Yes, the vast majority of German train stations offer free Wi-Fi in 2026 through the "WIFI@DB" network. A supportive peer "connectivity" guide: managed by Deutsche Bahn, this service provides free, high-speed internet at over 130 major stations (Bahnhöfe) across the country. To use it, you simply select the network on your device and accept the terms on the portal page; unlike in years past, there is no longer a strict "30-minute limit" at the larger "Category 1" stations like Berlin Hbf or Munich Hbf. Furthermore, the 2026 rollout of "Seamless Connectivity" means that if you are logged into the Wi-Fi on an ICE (high-speed) train, your device should automatically hand over to the station Wi-Fi as you step onto the platform without you needing to log in again. Note that smaller, rural "Haltestellen" (unstaffed stops) may still have limited or no coverage, so it’s always good to have a backup data plan.
