Hof Hauptbahnhof (German for Hof main station; sometimes translated as "Hof Central Station"^[3] or described as "Hof central station"^[4]^[5] in English) is the main railway station in Hof in southern Germany and is situated at the intersection of the Saxon-Franconian trunk line (Magistrale) and the Munich–Regensburg–Leipzig–Berlin line. When it was opened it formed the boundary between the former Bavarian Ludwig South-North Railway Lindau–Hof to the Saxon-Bavarian Railway on the Saxon side from Hof–Leipzig.

Today the Deutsche Bahn has classified Hof Hauptbahnhof as category 3 – a regional hub/long-distance stop.
