Stendal Hauptbahnhof (until December 14, 2019: Stendal station ) is one of three train stations in the city of Stendal in Saxony-Anhalt. It is an important rail hub for regional trains and is also regularly served by Intercity and Intercity Express trains. Until the 2012 winter timetable, Stendal station was only served by Deutsche Bahn trains. The Ostdeutsche Eisenbahn (ODEG) has been operating at the station since December 2012, as has the Hanseatic Railway and Abellio Rail Mitteldeutschland since December 9, 2018 .

history

On July 7, 1849, the town of Stendal got its first railway connection, as the Magdeburg-Wittenberg Ash Railway Company , the Magdeburg-Wittenberge railway opened. This led along the eastern edge of the village, where the train station was initially located.

In the course of the construction work for the Stendal – Uelzen railway and the Berlin-Lehrter Railway around 1870, however, the station had to be relocated to the southern edge of the city in order to enable travelers to switch between the three lines. The Magdeburg-Wittenbergesche Bahn was also relocated to be connected to the new train station and has since circumnavigated the city in the west. The present reception building was built between 1869 and 1871.

In April 1886 the station was connected to the Stendal-Tangermünder Railway .

In June 1892 a tram connection was opened between the station forecourt and the Uenglinger Tor ; in October 1909 another was added, which also led to Uenglinger Tor, but from there to what was then the Ostbahnhof. Both tram routes were shut down in October 1926 and replaced by a bus connection .

In autumn 1908 the station was connected with the Stendal – Arendsee small railway , and in May 1914 with the Stendal – Arneburg small railway after it had been converted from meter gauge to standard gauge . The line to Arendsee was gradually shut down between 1978 and 1995. All rail operations on the route to Arneburg ended in October 1972.

From January 1977 the trains on the new Stendal – Niedergörne railway ended in the station, the line was intended as a connection for the never completed Stendal nuclear power plant . Since the end of passenger transport at the end of 1995, this route has only been used by freight trains.

In 1984, with the electrification of the line to Magdeburg, Stendal was connected to the electrical railway network.

Between 1994 and 1998, the high-speed line from Hanover to Berlin was built parallel to the Berlin-Lehrter Bahn . Contrary to the wishes of the city, a southern bypass of Stendal was created, which is still used by most of the long-distance trains on the route. Nevertheless, the first ICE stopped at Stendal station on September 27, 1998.

In January 2015 the pedestrian underpass was extended to the south side. It was planned to renew the central platforms and build elevators from 2016 so that the station would be barrier-free. A total of 5 million euros should be invested for this. The start of construction will, however, be delayed until 2019, so that completion is not expected until 2021. Construction started on June 13, 2019.

With the timetable change on December 15, 2019, the station was given the suffix “Hauptbahnhof”.

The Stendal area is to be equipped with digital interlockings and ETCS by 2030 as part of the “starter package” of Digital Rail Germany , as part of the TEN core network corridor Scandinavia-Mediterranean .
