history

With the opening of the Mannheim - Schwetzingen - Graben-Neudorf - Eggenstein - Karlsruhe line of the Baden Rheinbahn on August 4, 1870, the Mannheim-Rheinau station was opened. The building owner of the line and the station was the Grand Ducal Baden State Railways .

On 1 October 1905, the Baden State Railways opened a single-track, non-electrified branch line -Karlsruhe Mannheim based as a branch from the main line of a Baden Act of 1902, initially only to Brühl . On the basis of another law from 1910, the route was extended to Ketsch in 1912 .

The Rheinbahn was electrified in the 1950s .

On September 25, 1966, the Mannheim-Rheinau-Ketsch line was closed. By the turn of the millennium , most of the tracks had been dismantled and the line completely shut down.

On October 31, 2016, the groundbreaking ceremony took place in Mannheim-Rheinau for the modernization of the traffic stations on the Rheinbahn as part of the second expansion stage of the Rhein-Neckar S-Bahn on the basis of the cooperation agreement on the S-Bahn-compatible modernization of the railway infrastructure for the 2nd Construction stage of the Rhein-Neckar S-Bahn from June 19, 2008 and the planning agreement for this section of June 25, 2009. In Mannheim-Rheinau, around 4.2 million euros plus planning costs (total around 6.25 million euros) the existing platforms demolished and rebuilt as 210 m long, 76 cm high platforms and elevators to the pedestrian underpass built. A wall of a ramp of the pedestrian underpass was created by students from Rheinauer schools as part of a graffiti - Workshops designed in June of 2019.

On May 15, 2017, the groundbreaking ceremony for the renovation of the station forecourt including the tram stop and the construction of a new rectifier substation followed . From September 11, 2017, the old turning loop was removed there. The renovation of the tram stop cost the MV Mannheimer Verkehr GmbH 8.17 million euros, of which around 2.9 million euros were financed through the State Municipal Transport Financing Act. As of April 20, 2018, the stop was regularly approached by trams again. The remaining construction work lasted until August 2018.

Both construction measures together cost around 14.5 million euros, of which the city of Mannheim and its subsidiaries had to pay around 7.7 million euros. Prior to the middle of the tram terminal loop and now between the bus stop and P + R - Parking is a listed bunker from the Second World War , the 1 January 2014 by MVV Verkehr GmbH from DB Netz AG was acquired, which all participants would like to demolish. On July 12, 2019, the official inauguration of the “compact station” took place. To change between DB platform 1 and tram stop, passengers no longer have to cross a street, while the public transport stops were previously located in the middle of an expressway feeder. To change between bus and tram, passengers first had to cross a MIV lane without crossing assistance; now buses and trams sometimes stop on the same platform opposite.

Track systems

After the renovation, the Mannheim-Rheinau station has only two barrier-free platforms instead of three platform tracks. Track 2 can only be reached through a pedestrian underpass using stairs or a ramp and an elevator .

In the station there is a siding of the State Rhein-Neckar-Hafengesellschaft Mannheim (HGM) to the Rheinauhafen .
