History

Bad Bellingen station was opened on 8 November 1848 as part of the SchliengenEfringen section of the Mannheim–Karlsruhe–Basel railway (Rhine Valley Railway) from Mannheim via Karlsruhe and Freiburg to Basel. The ticket office was opened at the same time.

The entrance building, which is still standing today, was opened In 1865, almost 20 years after the opening of the line.

A freight hall with a loading platform was added to the entrance building in 1884. The loading of freight in Bad Bellingen was abandoned in 1965 and the freight hall was demolished in 1978.

The ticket office, the baggage claim area and the waiting room in the station building were closed on 1 September 1991. The station building has been empty since then.

The platforms have been raised slightly and extended to a length of 210 metres, with work finished in December 2013.[5]

In the summer of 2014, the section of line between Schliengen and Haltingen via Bad Bellingen was completely renovated with full closure. The tracks, sleepers and tunnels were renewed.[6]

The station building was auctioned on behalf of Deutsche Bahn by Auktionshaus Karhausen AG in Berlin on 9 October 2015.[7]
