History

View of the station before the alterations in 2007

The station was opened in 1885 on the Gruiten–Köln-Deutz railway, which was completed between Gruiten and Opladen by the Bergisch-Märkische Railway Company on 25 September 1867. The station building, which is a replica of a station in Massachusetts, was finished in 1899.[6][7] Since 26 May 1993, it has been heritage-listed.[8] Until the 1980s, there was a freight yard located at the present site of the construction market in Böttingerstraße. In 2007, the station surroundings were redesigned and bicycle parking and additional car parking were built.
