history

The Royal Bavarian State Railways opened the Prien station on May 7, 1860 with the Rosenheim – Traunstein line, and on August 1, 1860, the line was extended to Salzburg. On August 18, 1878, the Bavarian State Railways opened the line to Aschau, and the station became a separation station. Prien was an office on the Rosenheim – Salzburg route and had its own railway maintenance office . On July 9, 1887, the Chiemseebahn, another railway line starting in Prien am Chiemsee, was opened, in this train the royal waiting pavilion at Rimsting station , which is now a listed building, was dismantled and rebuilt next to the station building in Prien. Around 1900 a separate station for the Chiemseebahn was inaugurated. Shortly thereafter, a people tunnel was built that connected the new station with the platforms.

From the end of the Second World War until 1976, a class 323 locomotive was based in Prien to handle shunting work and general cargo . Since April 1, 1978, the Deutsche Bundesbahn office in Prien was only responsible for the branch line to Aschau. A year later, in May 1979, the railway maintenance facility was dissolved. The station has been called Prien a Chiemsee since May 1990, previously the station was only called Prien. A few months later, in July 1990, the Prien office was closed.

In March 1963 these went out of operation, instead the Deutsche Bundesbahn set up a push-button interlocking of the Siemens type Dr S2 , which was given the designation Pf . Since November 19, 2003, the station has been a branch of the Rosenheim electronic signal box .
