Name:: Welcoming His Majesty Emperor Franz Joseph at Tábor railway station, 1901
Description:: The railway was important for the development of Tábor. Between the station, built in 1872, and the Old Town, the modern New Town district arose and became the centre of the city's commercial activity. Factories important to the city's economic development also grew up around the station—the tobacco factory and malt house—as well as a large square with a park. Emperor Franz Joseph visited Tábor railway station twice, but never the city itself.
Automatic description:: An elevated view shows the platform packed with a dense crowd around an open saloon carriage. Uniformed men and civilian dignitaries wait by the door and large carpets cover the ground.
