The Mühltal station is a stop on the Odenwaldbahn in the Hessian community of Mühltal in the Vorderen Odenwald . It is located in the Nieder-Ramstadt district .

history

The station was opened on December 27, 1870 under the name Nieder Ramstadt-Traisa at route kilometers 13.0 of the Hessian Odenwaldbahn. Since May 27, 1882, trains have been running from Eberbach via Erbach , Höchst , Groß-Umstadt Wiebelsbach , Reinheim and Ober-Ramstadt to Darmstadt Central Station .

First a temporary building was erected, which was later replaced by a two and a half story building. The station building was built in clinker construction with timber framework , the attic and the street side were paneled with wood.

Originally, the station had two more tracks and a goods handling facility . The industrial railway Nieder-Ramstadt Association from 1891 to 1957 the station to the quarry at Wingertsberg in Nieder-Ramstadt. The narrow-gauge railway , which was initially operated by horses, transported the excavated rock to the loading facility at the station.

The station building was demolished in 1977. A plain, flat roof building was later built to replace it. The crossing track and the freight loading track were dismantled around 1988 and the station was downgraded to a stop. The goods shed, also made of clinker with timber framework, was preserved and is a listed building. A French restaurant has been located in the goods shed since 2013.

The listed Odenwaldbahn has been modernized since 2005. With the 2005/2006 timetable change on December 11, 2005, the Nieder Ramstadt-Traisa station was renamed the Mühltal station . However, the modernization of the Mühltal train station was delayed until 2010. From June to September 2010 a new, barrier-free platform was built.
