Platforms and tracks

Reception building (2004)

In 1979 there were three platforms in Sangerhausen station. At that time there were a total of 17 tracks. Their structural length was between 50 and 855 meters. In addition, five sidings led from the station to local factories. The shortest was 190 meters long, the longest 3149 meters.

Extensive modernization work began in September 2014. The platforms, underpasses and platform roofing were renewed by 2016 for 5.5 million euros, and elevators were also installed.

Reception building

The current station building, which is located south of the tracks, was built in 1963. It is considered the first new station building in the GDR and is a listed building . The painter and graphic artist Wilhelm Schmied created a particularly eye-catching wall mosaic in the entrance hall of the station . It shows the Mansfeld region with its agriculture and mining. The round kiosk on the forecourt was built in 1957.

Round kiosk created in 1957 (2015)

In 2009 the city of Sangerhausen acquired the station for 405,000 euros from Deutsche Bahn AG .

The building is to be revitalized by October 2016. Six million euros are earmarked for this. It will then be used for a service station, tourist information, toilet and for the city library.

Other plants

Two loading streets led to the tracks. There was also a goods handling facility with six parallel tracks as well as a head and a side ramp, each with a load capacity of 60 tons. Eleven water cranes were available for steam locomotives , which were able to pump two cubic meters of water per minute.

Repair workshop and car wash

On June 2, 2014, the groundbreaking ceremony took place for the new construction of a repair workshop and a washing facility for the Abellio trains. It was built on the site of the former freight station south of the main line in the eastern part of the station. On June 5, 2015, their overhead lines were energized. In December 2015 Abellio took over operations on the route to Erfurt. The Sangerhausen location was chosen because of its good location in the Saale-Thuringia-South Harz network. In 2018 it was expanded to include a further track and a wheelset lathe.

Depot

The former Sangerhausen depot was located northwest of the station. There were two engine sheds with a turntable for this purpose. Locomotive shed 1 was built in 1899 and had a turntable with a diameter of 20 meters. It is a yellow brick building. Locomotive shed 2 was built in 1923. Its turntable was 23 meters in diameter, slightly larger than that of the first shed.

Until 1945 the plant belonged to the Reichsbahndirektion Kassel . From January 3, 1947 to January 15, 1947, the RBD Halle took over . Since then it has belonged to the RBD Erfurt .

The Sangerhausen depot was closed in the 1990s. The locomotive maintenance was reorganized and merged into fewer locations. Most of the maintenance of trains is now carried out in Magdeburg and Halle (Saale) .

Today the building is unused. In 2011/12, a possible sale was considered.

Transport links

Long-distance transport

Express trains stopped in Sangerhausen until 1992 .

In 1993/94 the station was served by Interregio trains. These operated between Frankfurt (Main) and Halle as well as between Konstanz and Dessau .

From 2010, a pair of IC trains ran between Leipzig and Frankfurt (Main) on Sundays . This was part of line 50 and was run as a relief train. In December 2014 this train was completely deleted from the timetable. The long-distance traffic stop in Sangerhausen was therefore omitted. In the meantime, individual IC trains run again on Fridays and Saturdays between Berlin Hbf and Cologne Hbf via Halle (Saale) –Sangerhausen – Nordhausen – Kassel = Wilhelmshöhe – Soest – Hamm (Westphalia).
