The Freiberg (Sachs) Station is an operating agency of the railways Dresden-Werdau and Nossen-Moldava in Freiberg in Saxony . The Freiberg – Halsbrücke railway line, which is now closed, began in the station until 1995 .

history

Freiberg train station around 1900
Railway Station (1914)

With the opening of the extension of the Dresden – Tharandt railway on August 11, 1862 to Freiberg, the Freiberg (Sachs) station was also opened. The entrance building, which was spacious for the time, was designed by the Freiberg architect and professor Eduard Heuchler using neo-Gothic style elements. Not much of these can be seen after repair work in the 20th century, but the basic structure of the reception building from 1862 still exists today. Almost seven years after the opening, on March 1, 1869, the extension of the railway line to Chemnitz went into operation and Freiberg station became a through station. In the following decade, the Nossen – Moldau railway line opened via Freiberg . In 1890 operations began on the Freiberg – Halsbrücke railway line , which was particularly important in freight transport. The strong growth in passenger and freight traffic required the reconstruction of the railway systems at the station from 1900 onwards. The track system was extended to the south, intermediate platforms with rail-level passenger entrances were replaced by central platforms with access through passenger tunnels and level crossings by street underpasses.

According to the official timetable from 1944/45, three long-distance connections operated via Freiberg train station.

line Line course

36 Breslau − Dresden − Freiberg (Sachs) −Hof − Nuremberg − Stuttgart
37 Breslau − Dresden − Freiberg (Sachs) −Hof − Würzburg - Mannheim - Saarbrücken

A first decline in importance occurred when travel to Halsbrücke (1975) and to Nossen (1977) ceased. In 1997, travel to Brand-Erbisdorf and Langenau also ended.

In 2011, the IF group of companies from Freiburg acquired the reception building and part of the site from Deutsche Bahn for a six-figure purchase price. During the planned renovation work, additional retail space was to be created on the ground floor and office space upstairs. However, there was hardly any construction activity and so the building fell into disrepair, so that the public and the city of Freiberg itself showed more and more interest in buying it.

Since December 1, 2019, the city of Freiberg has owned the reception building and the surrounding property, as well as the parking lot in front of the building. The first measures are regular rubbish collection and reactivation of the outdoor lighting, on the one hand the reopening of the sanitary facilities and on the other hand the opening of a kiosk should take place soon, because the ServiceStore of DB Station & Service was closed in March 2018 after the lease expired; further information is not known. Apart from security measures on the roof and facade, however, no further structural measures are to be expected, as the renovation is not due to begin until 2021. Initial considerations on the use of the city also include its own administrative offices and private service industry. Citizens' dialogues are to take place in 2020 to develop a concept.

Depot

In the early years a simple two-tier locomotive shed was sufficient. With the renovation of the station from 1900, a new roundhouse with a turntable and the corresponding treatment systems were built.

The locomotive station was elevated to the status of an independent Freiberg depot in 1936 , to which the Bienenmühle, Klingenberg-Colmnitz and Sayda locomotive stations were subordinate.

After the Second World War, the Freiberg depot lost its importance, as the formerly important route to Moldova was interrupted. The Klingenberg-Colmnitz locomotive station was also handed over to the Wilsdruff depot .

With the closure of the Mulda – Sayda narrow-gauge railway , the Sayda site was closed in 1966; the Bienenmühle site had ceased to exist in 1960. On May 31, 1967, the depot was dissolved as an independent department and incorporated into the Nossen depot . On January 1, 1968, Freiberg was assigned to the newly founded Karl-Marx-Stadt depot . Quite soon all the locomotives still in Freiberg were handed over to other offices, but Freiberg was a personnel deployment point at least until the 1990s.

Locomotive use

Initially, only locomotives from the Royal Saxon State Railways were used. Only from the end of the 1920s onwards were other vehicles added. Saxon regional railroad locomotives were also stationed here until the 1960s.

Transport links

The Freiberg station was a traffic stop for the Franken-Sachsen-Express until it was closed in 2014 . The RE 3 Dresden – Hof and RB 30 Dresden – Zwickau lines are currently operating in Freiberg as the Central German regional railway, as are the Freiberg railway trains from and to Holzhau. All three lines run every hour. The regional express trains meet half an hour before the usual symmetry minute and each have a connection to and from the FEG trains to Holzhau.

Since December 9, 2007, Dresden S-Bahn trains have also been running to Freiberg . Line S 3 only runs Monday through Friday during peak hours (5–7 a.m. and 1–4 p.m.). Together with the RB 30, this creates a 30-minute cycle between Freiberg and Dresden during peak hours that serves all stops on the way. Together with the RE 3, three pairs of trains per hour run between Freiberg and Dresden during peak hours.
