history

The planning and execution of the building are assigned to Georg Friedrich Christian Bürklein , a student of Friedrich von Gärtner . The two-storey gable roof building with a ground floor wing is one of the few station buildings on this railway line that are still largely preserved.

To the north of the station there were connecting and loading tracks to the lime, stone and cement works Sebald Zement GmbH, founded in 1860 . The extensive traffic was carried out with its own works locomotive.

Todays use

Since the completion of the S-Bahn line, the station has had three platform tracks on a house platform and an island platform. The island platform with tracks 2 and 3 is reached via an underpass. While tracks 1 and 2 serve the regional express trains in the direction of Schwandorf and Nuremberg, the S-Bahn trains that end here turn to track 3. The former freight tracks have been removed.

On October 15, 2012, after extensive renovation work in the station building, the prehistory museum Urzeitbahnhof Hartmannshof was opened. The museum gives an overview of 100,000 years of environmental and human history. Finds mainly from the eastern part of the Nuremberg region are shown.

The station is designated as a historical building by the Bavarian State Office for the Preservation of Monuments (D-5-74-147-53).
