The S-Bahn station Sundgauer Straße is a stop of the Berlin S-Bahn in the Berlin district of Zehlendorf . It is located at route kilometer 10.8 of the Wannseebahn at the intersection with the street of the same name. The station is listed as a BSDG in the operating point directory.
Location and structure
The S-Bahn station is located in the Zehlendorf part of the Steglitz-Zehlendorf district of Berlin. The neighboring stations are Lichterfelde West 1.6 kilometers away and Zehlendorf 1.2 kilometers away.
The stop includes a central platform 166 meters long. Access is via two exits, which are located in the middle and at the southwest end of the platform. The entrance building, a single-storey brick building , corresponds in its architectural style to the typical Berlin train station building of the 1920s and 1930s; the architect was Richard Brademann . The construction costs were given as around 620,000 marks . The S-Bahn station is registered as a monument in the Berlin State Monument List.
history
The plans for a station to replace today's S-Bahn station go back to 1914, but were never implemented. On the occasion of the electrification of the Wannseebahn at the beginning of the 1930s, the Deutsche Reichsbahn decided to build a new stop. As in the older plans, Zehlendorf Ost was initially intended as the name . Shortly before the opening, it was given up in favor of Sundgauer Straße . The choice of name should give a reference to the Alsatian Sundgau , which had to be given to France in 1919 . The opening took place on July 1, 1934, about a year after the railroad was electrified.
In the catchment area of the S-Bahn station, around 3000 people had been resettled in a half-circle of one kilometer by the time it opened; a total of around 3200 people settled near the train station. At that time, the planners assumed around 250 S-Bahn journeys per inhabitant in this settlement area.
There was no major damage to the station during the Second World War .
As a result of the second Reichsbahn strike , the Wannseebahn and the S-Bahn stations adjacent to it were closed on September 18, 1980. After the handover of the S-Bahn operating rights from the Reichsbahn to the Berliner Verkehrsbetriebe (BVG) on January 9, 1984, the reconstruction of the line and the extensive renovation of the S-Bahn stations began. These could be completed on February 1, 1985.
