The Hamburg Holstenstraße station is a station of the Hamburg S-Bahn on the Hamburg-Altona connection line . Here the S-Bahn branch branches off towards Elbgaustraße and Pinneberg . Until 1967 there was also a platform on the parallel long-distance tracks of the connecting line.
history
The station was built as part of the renovation of the aforementioned connecting line as a stop for passenger traffic and a replacement for the shoulder blade station. The reason for the new construction was the tracks, which until then had run at street level, which made level crossings necessary, which hindered the increasing traffic. With the construction of the new station, the tracks were therefore raised. The Holstenstrasse station was opened on May 1, 1893. Since a transition to the nearby Bramstedter Bahnhof or "Kaltenkirchener Bahnhof" of the Altona-Kaltenkirchener Eisenbahn-Gesellschaft was possible from here until 1912 , the station was well received. Until 1938 it was called Altona Holstenstraße , which has been its current name since April 1, 1938.
At that time the station had one platform each for the long-distance railway and one for the Hamburg-Altona city and suburban railway , the predecessor of today's S-Bahn . The platforms and the associated tracks were covered by a two-aisled hall. The station had a medium-sized, Art Nouveau- style reception building that was almost completely destroyed in 1943 during Operation Gomorrah . The hall was also badly damaged in the process and, at the end of the Second World War, consisted only of an iron framework above the platform of the S-Bahn. This was then glazed in a makeshift manner. Since no further investments were made, the remains of the halls and reception buildings were demolished at the end of the 1980s.
Due to the large number of passengers, planning began in the mid-1950s for the construction of a railway line that would run from Holstenstraße station via Elbgaustraße in the direction of Pinneberg and at the same time connect the Hamburg S-Bahn network with the AKN . By bypassing the previous routing via Altona station, the workload could be relieved and at the same time commuter travel times were significantly reduced. S-Bahn trains were to be unthreaded at Holstenstrasse station and then continued to the line to Langenfelde. The construction work began on September 26, 1958. The construction of the necessary unthreading works immediately west of the Holstenstrasse station and the construction of two new bridges 90 meters long to cross Stresemannstrasse proved to be particularly complicated. The line to Langenfelde was put into operation on February 22, 1962. Today it is used by the S-Bahn in the direction of Elbgaustraße .
Since 1967, no trains have stopped at the platform of the long-distance train tracks at Holstenstrasse station. The long-distance platform was removed.
During the renovation work at the end of the 1980s, today's S-Bahn platform was given a roof with a barrel vault in the middle , based on the historical Art Nouveau , which, however, no longer covers the tracks.

Location and facilities
The station is located between the Sternschanze and Altona stations near the northern end of Holstenstrasse on Holstenplatz, around 100 meters from the eponymous street. To the north of the train station is Stresemannstrasse and Neue Flora , to the southwest of which is Holstenplatz and then the Holsten Brewery . The postal address of the station is Stresemannstrasse 156.
The ascent to the central platform is from the western end of the platform via Holstenplatz. Stepless access to the platform is possible.
In operational terms, Holstenstraße used to be a train station on both the long-distance and the S-Bahn tracks. Today the station is a stopping point and branching point on the tracks of the S-Bahn, there is no longer any operating point on the long-distance train tracks in this area.
There are several bus stops in the vicinity of the train station, which are served by HVV lines.
