history

When the Bodenseebahn was first planned, a Riedt station was initially planned, but this was replaced by today's Sulgen station when the line was built. The station was opened to traffic in 1855 and received its current station building according to plans by the architect Jakob Friedrich Wanner - who was responsible for the buildings of the Bodenseebahn stations - only in the years 1866/67. In 1876 the Swiss Northeast Railway opened its leased connection between Weinfelden and Gossau SG , which only branched off from the Lake Constance Railway in Sulgen. Thus, the station was expanded into a branch station. In 1885 it became the property of the NOB and in 1902 it finally came into the possession of the newly founded SBB. The Lokremise built by the Bischofszellerbahn is now a section of the Eurovapor. Since December 10, 2010, Sulgen is no longer a serviced station, the counter has been closed.
