Description
Views of the Huntington Holiday Train on display at the Main Library of the Columbus Metropolitan Library, 96 South Grant Avenue. The original train display was built in 1992 by Applied Imagination’s Paul Busse. The historic lobby of Huntington’s original bank building was the longtime home of the display until 2009, the first year it was on display at the Main Library. The miniature buildings are modeled after actual churches, homes and commercial buildings in and around the Bavarian towns of Bernkastel and Rottenberg, Germany, known for their Gothic and Renaissance-era architecture. The cathedral is modeled after Frauenkirche (Church of Our Lady) in Dresden, Germany – Columbus’ sister city. Inspiration for the 8-foot tall Bavarian-style castle came from 19th century fantasy castles throughout southern Germany that were commissioned for the eccentric “Mad King” Ludwig II. The exhibit is never the same. It is assembled differently each year.
