History

The station was constructed from 1912 to 1914 using plans by Eugen Göbel, but there were no trains at the station until September 1918. The station opened with the start of provisional steam train operation to Barmbek. This provisional steam train operation was ended in the middle of 1919. In 1924, one of the tracks was dismantled and electric operation on the line started in early February 1925. In 1927, a second track was installed, which initially started just before the station and led to the terminus, Ohlstedt.

It was only in 1954 that the second track was extended to Volksdorf, fully double-tracking the entire Ohlstedt branch.

In 1989, the whole station was renovated, adding an elevator and a second exit.
