The Bischofswerda Station is a train station at the Görlitz-Dresden railway and here branching path to Neukirch (Lausitz) West . It thus serves as a branch of the local transport lines going from Dresden to Görlitz and Zittau . At the station there is also the possibility of switching to bus transport.
location
The Görlitz – Dresden railway runs south of the city center. In the southeast of the city center is the train station, which is directly connected to the central Altmarkt via Bahnhofstrasse. At the southwest exit of the train station in the direction of Dresden, first Neustädter Strasse and then Süßmilchstrasse run under the tracks into the southern districts of the city. Federal highway 98 crosses the route further west . The routes in the direction of Görlitz and Zittau separate directly at the eastern exit of the station.
history
In 1843 Prussia and Saxony signed a state treaty to build the railway line from Dresden to Görlitz. The construction work began on the Saxon side on June 18, 1844 from the Silesian railway station in Dresden . On November 17, 1845, the first train reached the neighboring town of Radeberg . As early as December 21, 1845, the line to Bischofswerda and from June 23, 1846 to Bautzen was operated continuously with three trains a day. The Bischofswerda train station was opened on December 22, 1845. On December 23, 1846, the clearance took place to Löbau , on July 1, 1847 to the state border Saxony / Prussia near Reichenbach / OL and finally on September 1, 1847 to Görlitz. There the connection was made towards Silesia .
The station buildings at Bischofswerda and von Radeberg were constructed identically in 1845 as part of the overall route construction. The Bischofswerda train station has been rebuilt several times. In the years 1883/84, the three-story eastern extension with several waiting rooms and the station restaurant was added.
After the political change and the merger of the two German state railways in 1994, the Bischofswerda train station gradually lost its importance and thus gradually lost several functions. Since the electronic signal box (ESTW) was commissioned in 2001, the points and signals have been controlled from the operations center in Leipzig and there was no need for an on-site dispatcher .
In 2006 the station was frequented by 2,500 travelers every day.
The station building became dispensable for Deutsche Bahn . The city of Bischofswerda acquired the building. In June 2007, the demolition work began on the eastern part of the reception building with the reception hall and the former train station restaurant, as no use was foreseeable for this part of the building. Only the two-story building from 1845 remained and was renovated. Today it houses a kiosk with ticket sales, a waiting hall, a Trilex registration office and living quarters.
The dismantling was completed in 2009. This was preceded by the redesign of the station forecourt. A bus station and parking lots were built next to the main platform . 3.6 million euros flowed into the design of the transition point between bus, train and private transport ( P + R ) (75 percent of which was subsidies from the Free State of Saxony and 25 percent from ZVON ).

The station has a house platform and a central platform .
