The Luckenwalde station is the station of the city Luckenwalde in Teltow-Fläming . It went into operation in 1841. Between 1900 and 1939 a small train branched off here. Luckenwalde was thus a connecting station . The current station building is now the third.

history
State train station
The Luckenwalde station went into operation on July 1, 1841. Original considerations envisaged a route via Treuenbrietzen , but the administrative director of the Berlin-Anhalt Railway Company , Heinrich Conrad Carl, took a tour via Luckenwalde. Carl also owned a factory in Luckenwalde.
After the first section of the Anhalter Bahn from Berlin to Jüterbog had been opened, it was followed on September 10, 1841 of the same year by the entire route via Wittenberg to Köthen station . A reception building existed from the beginning. For the construction of the station 12,000 Reichstaler had been estimated, in fact its construction cost 18,693 Taler.
The connection to the rail network had a positive effect on Luckenwaldes economy. The expansion of the Anhalter Bahn began in Berlin in 1872. A new station building was built in Luckenwalde. In contrast to the first building, this time it was built on the eastern side. A pedestrian tunnel provided access to the platforms. The second station building had to be built on the one hand because of the increasing number of passengers and on the other hand also for the dispatch of the products of the Luckenwalder industry. A freight yard with a loading platform and general cargo shed was also built.
At the beginning of the new century there were plans for an extensive expansion of the Anhalter Bahn. The line between Berlin and Jüterbog was to be expanded to four tracks. However, due to the First World War, the work was not completed. However, the laying of the tracks in the town of Luckenwalde, which were newly built in the embankment, was realized. This construction project began in 1915. French prisoners of war were also used for this purpose. In connection with this work, the station received a new, the third station building, which was built between 1914 and 1916. The work was completely finished in 1917.
It was also planned to build a separate platform for the suburban railway. After the end of the First World War, the plans for a further expansion of the line were revived, but after 1922 this project was no longer pursued. A third platform was not created. Parts of this begun platform could still be seen well into the 21st century.
A library has been located in the former reception building since 2008. The renovation began at the end of 2006. In 2007 a golden-colored extension was built. The cost was around 3.4 million euros. About 45,000 items can be borrowed there. The station building is a listed building.
Small train station
The small train station was put into operation on December 20, 1900. A loading ramp at the same level from the small station to the normal railway was available. For the transport of agricultural products, e.g. B. to Berlin, that was important. As early as January 19, 1932, passenger traffic on the section between Luckenwalde and Hohenseefeld was discontinued, since buses were now used to transport passengers. Freight traffic was also given up on February 15, 1939.
After 1945, passenger and freight traffic on the small railroad revived. However, the traffic then ended on the southern outskirts and the old small train station was no longer used. Its old station building was preserved and is a listed building.
Investments
Reception building
The third station building from 1917 housed the station master's apartment and some office rooms. The building also contained the waiting rooms and train station restaurants, which were divided into classes. The first class waiting room was a little more splendid. Large display boards that gave information about the arrival of the trains were located in the waiting rooms and reception hall. At one of the control boxes, only those with a ticket were allowed access to the platform. Anyone who wanted to get on the platform had to buy a platform ticket, even if they didn't want to take the train.
Platforms and tracks
From the renovation of the station in the 1910s to the end of the 1990s, the station had two central platforms. After 2000 the station was rebuilt again. Since then, a total of four tracks have run through the passenger station. Two of them are platform tracks on outside platforms. These bear the numbers 3 and 4. Their length is 270 meters and their platform height is 76 centimeters.
Postbahnhof
At the Postbahnhof there was a loading platform for the municipal gas works. He had two loading docks. A passenger tunnel connected the Postbahnhof with the platforms. In the two-story building there were service rooms for the railway staff on the upper floor.
Other plants
To the left of the main entrance to the building was the pedestrian tunnel to the third, unfinished platform.
