Hagen's main railway station, which was opened for public use in 1910, is a neo-Baroque hall with a high clock tower by the architect Walter Morin. Osthaus, who had called in vain for a building in the "New Style", was at least able to ensure that the arch above the main entrance contained a stained glass window designed by Jan Thorn-Prikker. The programmatic title "The artist as teacher for trade and industry" underlines the claim of Osthaus's comprehensive "artistic mission".
