building

The station building is a clinker brick building with elements of home style . With its two-story extension, which is used by Deutsche Bahn as a signal box, the building is around 45.3 meters long. The main building, which today measures around 35.6 by 9.8 meters, has two high floors and a low attic. It received its shape through various extensions and changes.

Built around 1881, the ground floor originally included waiting rooms for travelers of various classes. The station master lived upstairs. Mitropa later also used the ground floor. Today the building is no longer accessible to the public. It has been privately owned since March 2017 and has been modernized. It is used for commercial and residential purposes.

history

When the Berlin-Hamburg railway was designed in the 1840s , a route via Perleberg was planned for a time and was also measured. In the end, however, the Berlin – Hamburg route was passed through the neighboring Wittenberge . The lobbying work of the owner of the Wittenberg oil mill, Salomon Herz , contributed to this decision . Perleberg as the district town of Westprignitz initially remained without a railway connection. Post coaches then ran from Perleberg to the Wittenberg train station .

In order to improve the unsatisfactory situation for Perleberg, the city planned a connecting railway to Wittenberge. On June 17, 1881, the city-owned Wittenberge-Perleberger Railway received the concession to build the line. This was opened for passenger traffic as early as October 15, 1881. The station building also dates from this period. To extend the distance over Pritzwalk and Wittstock was Prignitzer railway company established. On May 31, 1885, passenger traffic to Wittstock could be started.

On October 15, 1897, the Perleberg – Hoppenrade small railroad was opened with a gauge of 750 mm. Together with the line from Hoppenrade to Kyritz , which opened on the same day, the district towns of East and West Prignitz were directly connected. The passenger platform of the narrow-gauge railway was at Perleberg station on today's station forecourt. Public passenger transport was discontinued on May 31, 1969 on the narrow-gauge line. The track systems were dismantled.

In 1911 the Westprignitzer Kreisringbahn went into operation. The railway line ran from Perleberg via Berge and Karstädt back to Perleberg. It had its Perleberg Süd station on Lenzener Strasse across from Perleberg station. To the west of it a connecting track led into the Perleberg station. In 1976 passenger traffic was stopped. The section from Perleberg via Karstädt to shortly after Dallmin was retained for freight traffic until the early 1990s. The route has now been completely dismantled.

As part of an expansion program for small train stations, the Perleberg station was made barrier-free with federal and state funds for 485,000 euros . The new 76 centimeter high outer platform was completed in August 2017. In addition, the station received an electronic signal box in October 2017, which is why the level crossings were also renewed.
