history

Opening and beginning

On May 1, 1870, the station was opened under the name Hoppegarten with two side platforms. At the end of the 19th century, a representative reception building for visitors to the Hoppegarten racecourse , also known as the Kaiserbahnhof , was built. In 1898 a small railway branching off in Hoppegarten to Altlandsberg was opened. On May 1, 1911, the station was renamed Hoppegarten (Mark) station . To the southwest of the station, a separate terminal station with twelve tracks on five platforms went into operation in 1923 for special traffic on racing days.

On August 1, 1944, today's station with a central platform was opened as a station for a suburban railway separated from the long-distance tracks. In April 1945 it was closed due to the war , and it was reopened on September 10 of the same year. The tracks of the racing station, which was closed in September 1944, were dismantled after the end of the war as a reparation payment to the Soviet Union after they had previously been used briefly for the loading of reparation goods. The dismantling of the second track on the suburban and long-distance lines was not, however, a reparation measure; the material was needed for the line to Erkner .

On March 7, 1947, the electric S-Bahn was started on the suburban tracks of the Eastern Railway. The northern edge of the platform was raised for the electric trains, the connecting trains pulled by steam locomotives ran from the southern platform track. From September 1948, the S-Bahn trains ran, initially every 40 minutes, beyond Hoppegarten.

Passenger traffic to Altlandsberg was discontinued in 1965, freight traffic continued on a section of the route until after 2000.

New construction of pedestrian bridges, stairs and elevator

South access to the station from the street Am Güterbahnhof

From November 2007 to May 2008 the pedestrian bridging as well as stairs and elevators to the tracks were built by the construction company Ludwig Freytag from Oldenburg . The clients were the municipality of Hoppegarten and DB Station & Service Schwerin. In 2010 a 152 meter long platform, a platform roof and a weather protection house were built. In addition, the platform lighting and loudspeaker systems were renewed. The complete renovation cost around 2.7 million euros and was funded with federal and state funds.

Listed Kaiserbahnhof

The station has a 19-meter-wide central platform with two tracks on the S-Bahn line of the Eastern Railway. To the south of it are the long-distance tracks with a no longer used goods shed. To the north of the Ostbahn tracks was the small station for the route to Altlandsberg, which was connected to the Ostbahn via a connecting track.

South of the through tracks were the end tracks of the racing station, which was no longer used after the end of the Second World War. The tracks were removed, the representative station building of the so-called Kaiserbahnhof remained. The "system of the Kaiserbahnhof with station building, supervisory building, platform and paved forecourt" is a listed building. Since 2013, a local association has been trying to find a use for the vacant building. It is to be converted into an event and restaurant location by the end of 2018, half of the costs of 2.2 million euros are borne by the EU funding program LEADER and the municipality of Hoppegarten.

The bus stops are in the street Am Güterbahnhof.
