The station Hamburg-Harburg Rathaus or short- Harburg Town Hall is a station of the S-Bahn Hamburg at the Harburg S-Bahn in Hamburg district of Harburg and serves as a so-called multi-purpose plant civil defense.

Function as a rapid transit station

The tunnel station, which opened on September 23, 1983, is located under Harburger Ring and is around 200 m long. It has three platform tracks and a sweeping track for turning trains. The Hrf signal box (Harburg-Rathaus) is also located within the underground train station . The train station is served by the S3 and S31 trains. In the off-peak time (NVZ), the line ends S31 there in the off-peak time the station is only on the S3 served.

During the construction period, two preliminary structures (so-called preliminary construction work, designed as niches) were provided, which should serve as a branch for a future branch line in a south-westerly direction. One of them is to the east of the stop in the route tunnel, the other inside the stop at the mouth of the tunnel from Heimfeld . While the niche is visible in the tunnel, it has been disguised inside the stop.

After the escalators were renewed in 2006 , the stop received a fire protection refurbishment in 2008. As with many other underground Hamburg express train stops, the ceiling paneling was removed in order to give the smoke more room to spread upwards in the event of a fire. As in other stops, the headroom in front of the stairs was reduced to two meters using drywall to keep the emergency exits smoke-free and to prevent smoke from reaching other parts of the building via the stairs . In one case, this was achieved using automatic smoke protection curtains, which automatically lower down to around two meters in the event of a fire.

The widely ramified stop has a total of ten stairways and two elevators on both sides from the platforms to street level. As part of the development of a previously fallow area on Knoopstraße, an eleventh staircase was shut down and bricked up in 2019.

Function as a civil defense structure

The platform area of ​​the S-Bahn station is also Hamburg's largest civil defense area . In an emergency, 5,000 people can survive there for two weeks.

In adjoining rooms there are also the so-called function rooms on several floors, which house extensive sanitary facilities and, for example, a large kitchen . In addition to the three platforms, three long trains parked in the station also serve as space for the civilian population. A total of 5,300 m² are available.

After the main entrances are closed by steel gates set into the floor, access is only possible through a gas lock , which is hidden in the two front buildings. The track system is closed by means of six heavy steel gates (arranged on the side) that are hydraulically lowered onto the track structure. The drinking water supply is ensured by a deep well , the power supply by diesel generators . 50,000 liters of fuel are in stock. The well has meanwhile been secured because the water would have run into the system due to an increase in the groundwater level . The ventilation is regulated by a sand filter .

The bunker has only been kept operational since the end of the Cold War , but now has an operational lead time of half a year. Immediately next to the underground food department of the Karstadt branch in Harburg is a shelf warehouse in which - as is usual with many bunkers - food can be stored in the event of a crisis. The last complete overhaul took place in 2001. Due to negligence in maintenance during the 1990s , a complete overpressure could not be built up, so the unrestricted functionality is doubtful.

In autumn 2015, bunk beds and chairs were removed from the bunker to be used for refugee accommodation.
