Radebeul-Kötzschenbroda is a stop on the Pirna – Coswig railway in the Radebeul district of Kötzschenbroda , which was expanded in 2013 as part of the simultaneous expansion of the Leipzig – Dresden and Pirna – Coswig lines in place of the former Radebeul West station and is now used in particular by the S- Railway Dresden is served.
The former station building (reception building and side wing) of the Kötzschenbrodaer station was removed from it after about 175 years of ownership and sold by Deutsche Bahn in early 2015 . It is the only remaining part of the station's cultural monument after the old platform roofing and the waiting building on the north side were removed when the tracks were modernized and the platforms were relocated, and the passenger tunnel under the tracks and to the former platform steps was filled.
description
In order to modernize the Kötzschenbroda station , which opened in 1840, the Royal Saxon State Railroad began to build new station buildings on March 11, 1895 in the Loessnitz community of Kötzschenbroda. The new station, consisting of a reception and dispatch building, a waiting hall, platform roofs and a railway house, was completed on February 15, 1896 and inaugurated on June 16, 1896. The former station building in the courtyard of Meißner Straße 281, which dates from 1872, was used as a residential building from 1896.
The representative reception and dispatch building in the "architecture of the third construction period of the so-called Dresden School " is located south of the elevated tracks. It consists of two similar, roughly square villa-like buildings in the neo-renaissance style with truncated pyramid roofs , which are connected at some distance by a connecting structure running parallel to the tracks. The building has three floors, two floors of which can be seen from the high tracks. The facade is emphasized by central projections and structured by pilaster strips and cornices . The windows are arched, rounded and rectangular on each floor.
In the locked interior (as of 2017) is the reception hall, a vestibule and a staircase, all of which are almost unchanged. The former passages to the platforms no longer exist after the renovation; The access to the S-Bahn stop is now from the underpass.
The listed railway station was, at least until the renovation in 2012/13, one of the few "historical facilities in Saxony that are largely completely preserved in their original condition and used for their original purposes."
The station forecourt is located in the corner between the station building on the west side, the high tracks in the north and the Paul Pönitz residential and commercial building as a corner building on the other side of Güterhofstraße.
The long-distance tracks no longer have platforms and allow passage at speeds of up to 160 km / h. The newly established branch in the western area of the former train station was named Radebeul Nord .
history
The construction of the long-distance railway connection Leipzig – Dresden , established from 1837 to 1839, was started by both sides at the same time. The section from Dresden to Weintraube was opened on July 19, 1838, and at the same time the first stop in what is now Radebeul's urban area was inaugurated at the current Radebeul-Weintraube train station .
On November 3 (or September 16) 1838 the section Weintraube via Coswig to Oberau was opened in front of the tunnel at that time . After the opening of the entire Leipzig – Dresden line in 1839, double-track was established on the entire line by 1840 and the stop in Kötzschenbroda was also opened in 1840 .
In Kötzschenbroda as well as in Weintraube , the trains only stopped on certain days in the first few years.
In 1868 the Kötzschenbroda stop was given a waiting hall, and in 1871 a freight transport facility was built on the newly constructed Güterhofstrasse south of the tracks and west of the stop. This was extended to a train station by installing points. In 1872 the first station building was built in the garden of the “Victoria” railway hotel north of the tracks.
The Kötzschenbroda timetable from 1876 shows that 37 passenger trains stopped in Kötzschenbroda every day.
As part of the four-track expansion of the line, Bahnhofstrasse was given a bridge for the tracks instead of the barrier system, on which two new tracks were first led on an embankment in the new station built in 1896. After the train traffic was diverted to these new tracks, the old level tracks were also placed on the appropriately widened dam and led into the station. In 1900 the four-track traffic could be started.
As of October 12, 1899 held near the train station at the corner Meissner Strasse / Moritzburger road a narrow gauge interurban tram , the popularly called "Lößnitz swing" Lößnitz railway . This meter-gauge route led to the Mickten tram transfer point in Dresden.
When Kötzschenbroda was incorporated into Radebeul in 1935, the station was given the name Radebeul-Kötzschenbroda , and in 1941 the name Radebeul West .
In 1946, tracks were dismantled as part of the reparation payments for the Soviet Union. In Radebeul West station , this affected the two middle tracks, so that the northern remaining track could serve the branch at Zitzschewig in the direction of Berlin and the southern track to Coswig .
At the beginning of the 1960s, Radebeul West station was rebuilt to create a future three-track system with a correspondingly large clearance delimitation for Soviet wide-gauge wagons (gauge 1520 mm). In the course of the reconstruction of the four platform tracks, the station received a modern switchboard of the type WSSB GS II Sp 64 b . It was the first of this type on the Deutsche Reichsbahn . It went into operation on March 27, 1969.
Radebeul-Kötzschenbroda (formerly Radebeul West) has been a stop on the S 1 S-Bahn line in the Oberelbe transport association since 1996 . The freight transport system at the station has meanwhile been demolished, the construction of the freight yard itself is still standing and is being used for other purposes.
From October 2009 to February 2012 the covered part of platform 1 was closed due to the risk of the platform roof collapsing. Between February 2012 and November 2013, the platform roof was secured by an enclosure so that travelers could get to the makeshift platform during the renovation phase. Since November 2013, the former platform of track 1 no longer fulfills a railway operational function and is closed.
The new long-distance tracks went into operation in February 2012. Until November 2013, there were two makeshift platforms on these to enable passenger changes.
In April 2013, the northern, listed building (staircase and former waiting room) was demolished and a retaining wall was erected in its place. It once served as an access structure to the platform tunnel. The new platform only has access to Bahnhofstrasse by stairs and elevator.
In November 2013, signs reading “Radebeul-Kötzschenbroda” were installed on the new platform. With the timetable change on December 15, 2013, the official renaming in Radebeul-Kötzschenbroda took place .
There is currently (as of 2017) no use for the privatized reception building.
S-Bahn traffic
Since December 2013, the stop has been served exclusively by the S1 line of the Dresden S-Bahn . The trains run every 30 minutes, which is increased by two additional trips per hour during the rush hour between Meißen-Triebischtal and Pirna.
| line | route | Cycle (min) |

construction
Radebeul West station was a pure through station with two platforms and an island platform in the middle. The long-distance through traffic ran without stopping in the middle of the four tracks, the S-Bahn traffic on the outside.
From 2010 to 2012, two new long-distance tracks without a platform for passageways were built on the south side. By 2014, two new S-Bahn tracks had been built on the north side. An island platform was created, which is connected to the street underpass by stairs and offers barrier-free access with an elevator.
Trivia
Immediately after the Second World War, Kötzschenbroda had the only operational train station in the Dresden area. Therefore, train travelers from outside Dresden had to take the "train to Kötzschenbroda", a place that was relatively unknown. The singer Bully Buhlan made the name of the station known throughout Germany in 1946 with the German version of Glenn Miller's music track Chattanooga Choo Choo , the post-war hit Kötzschenbroda-Express ( Excuse me, sir, this train goes to Kötzschenbroda ).
Kötzschenbroda is mentioned as a “Dresden pleasure place” with a “funny” name when the train stopped there in Theodor Fontane's novel Irrungen, Verrungen .
The now closed palace cinema was located in the station building . This commercially operated cinema with nine seats has had an entry in the Guinness Book of Records as the “smallest cinema by seating capacity” since November 2006 . According to the Guinness certificate, it was opened in 2006 by Johannes Gerhardt with the 1995 film Smoke .
