history

The Grand Ducal Baden State Railways took the station Hochhausen on 19 October 1867 as preliminary endpoint of from Lauda next track in operation. The reception building was not yet finished when it opened, so a temporary wooden structure from Heidelberg had to be erected. In September 1867 the first goods hall and in 1869 the reception building that has been preserved until today was completed. The station had two main tracks, a connecting track (track 3) as a goods shed track, and an open loading track with a head ramp at the end (track 4). Since it served temporarily as a terminus, a locomotive shed , two wagon sheds and a water tower were built there. With the opening of the Hochhausen– Wertheim section on October 15, 1868, it became an intermediate station .

In 1977 the station went administratively to the Lauda station and, in terms of personnel, was treated as a job together with Gamburg . In May 1999, ticket sales in the train station were stopped and a machine was installed in the bus shelter on the platform. In the late summer of 2003, the train station was dismantled to a single-track, unoccupied stop as part of a route renovation. The remaining tracks, switches and signals were dismantled. The level crossing was converted to train control and the last employee withdrawn. The station building was sold to the local Geier warehouse.
