The Langenselbold station is located on the Kinzig Valley Railway in Hessen and serves the city Langenselbold as the station .

history

The station was built on the Frankfurt-Bebraer Railway , whose southwestern section is now the Kinzig Valley Railway. With the opening of the Hanau Ost - Wächtersbach section on May 1, 1867, traffic began here.

Reception building

The station building was constructed axially symmetrically in the classical style in 1868 . So it is a “first generation” building on the route. However, its appearance has been greatly changed: both the originally two-story main building and the formerly one-story restaurant wing attached to the east were each later raised by one floor. The original building is probably based on a design by Julius Eugen Ruhl . The reception building is a cultural monument according to the Hessian Monument Protection Act .

traffic

Today the station has a house platform and an island platform.

The line between Hanau-Wolfgang and Gelnhausen has been expanded for 200 km / h so that long-distance trains can pass through the station at high speed. Langenselbold station is now only served by local and regional traffic and is of great importance for commuter traffic to and from the Rhine-Main area .

From 1904 to 1963, the station was still Langenselbold by Freigerichter little train of Gelnhäuser orbits approached. The circular path had its own station building and its own facilities east of the "State Station", which merged into it. The Hanauer Kleinbahn between Hanau and Langenselbold, on the other hand, had its own train station in Langenselbold, which was much closer to the town, and did not go to the "Staatsbahnhof".
