The Böhla station was a railway operating point on the Berlin – Dresden railway line in the area of ​​the former independent municipality and today's Priestewitz district of Böhla in what is now the district of Meißen in Saxony . Some parts of the former station complex are under monument protection.

A small railway settlement developed around this station, which is known as Böhla Bahnhof and is now also a district of Priestewitz.

history

From 1872 the founded Berlin-Dresdener Eisenbahn-Gesellschaft built a connection between Dresden and Berlin via Elsterwerda . This Berlin-Dresden railway received a train station in Böhla and this was opened on June 17, 1875.

Construction of the embankment on the B 101 (December 28, 2009)

The connection between Radeburg and Priestewitz on the planned “ Saxon Northeast Railway ” was one of the projects that began as emergency work after the First World War . In the summer of 1919, work began on the line as well as the first renovation work at Böhla station , which was finally stopped again in 1923. From 1931 the land expropriated for railway construction was returned to the previous owners.

From 1990, according to the plans, only the Berlin-Dresden Railway was to be expanded for high-speed traffic on the approximately 13 km long section between Böhla and Radebeul and a link to the Leipzig-Dresden Railway was to be established at Böhla. In March 1993, the preliminary planning between Neumedessen (Leipzig-Dresdner Bahn, “Neumedessen” are a few houses, referred to by residents as the “Riedelei” after the surname of the founder and is located near Medessen ) and Böhla (Berlin-Dresden Bahn) was confirmed. According to the planning status of December 1995, the project should be implemented between mid-1998 and early 2000. The Berlin-Dresdener Bahn was no longer to be used by regional traffic from Großenhain to Radebeul , but was to bundle long-distance and fast freight traffic in the future.

Before construction work began, the State Office for Archeology carried out excavations in 2002. Remnants of old settlements could be secured in the course of the future route. In the same year, the Böhla station was finally closed to passenger traffic.

The second construction phase with the threading into the Berlin-Dresden route included the construction of one ESTW-A each in Weißig and Böhla (Kottewitz branch) as well as recultivation measures. It was implemented from mid-December 2009 and completed on December 5, 2010. The Weißig – Böhla railway went into operation.

Plant and buildings

Among other things, two buildings from the Wilhelminian era have been preserved from the Böhla train station , both of which are now under monument protection . On the one hand, there is the former station building of the station, which was built in 1875. The two-storey plastered building has a flat gable roof and has segmented arched windows on both storeys.

The building of the former train station restaurant can be found a few meters away. Architecturally, echoes of the Swiss style can already be seen in it . The single-storey plastered building with a gabled central risalit has a flat gable roof.
