The Tschifflick-Niederauerbach Station - 1941 Two Bridges Niederauerbach - was the station of Zweibrücker district Niederauerbach . It was opened on November 25, 1875 as a through station for the Südpfalzbahn Landau – Zweibrücken . Its reception building and the ancillary buildings are under monument protection .

location

The station was on the southern outskirts of Niederauerbach . The Landau – Rohrbach railway runs in this area approximately in a semicircle from east to west. To the north of the route, the Schwarzbach flows parallel to it , and to the south of it is District Road 5 . District road 3 crosses the railway line immediately to the east of the former train station . Around two kilometers to the south is the Tschifflik pleasure palace , which was named after the station until 1941.

history

On January 10, 1838, a meeting took place in Speyer , which marked the beginning of the share subscription of the Palatinate Ludwig Railway. One proposal was to run the railway line via Zweibrücken and from there along the Schwarzbach via Rodalben , Annweiler and Langenkandel to the Rhine , but this did not prevail. Nevertheless, there were plans to build a line from Landau to Zweibrücken. Contrary to the original plans, a route over Pirmasens was ruled out because of the difficult topography. Instead, it led a few kilometers north of the city along Rodalb and Schwarzbach, creating a train station in Niederauerbach.

On November 25, 1875, the opening of the station, which was initially called "Tschifflick-Niederauerbach", took place. The first part of the name comes from the nearby Tschifflik pleasure palace . In 1922 it was incorporated into the newly founded Reichsbahndirektion Ludwigshafen . In the course of its dissolution on May 1, 1936, he moved to the area of ​​responsibility of the Saarbrücken management. On October 1, 1941, it was renamed "Zweibrücken-Niederauerbach", which takes into account the fact that the town was incorporated into Zweibrücken three years earlier .

The Deutsche Bundesbahn incorporated the station like all operating points within the newly created Rhineland-Palatinate into the Mainz Federal Railway Directorate . From 1969 it was no longer occupied. In 1971, following the dissolution of the Mainz management, he returned to the area of ​​responsibility of Saarbrücken. For lack of profitability it was abandoned in 1985 in the passenger transport . In 1990 goods traffic ended on site. A year later, all the track systems - including the goods loading - were dismantled, which means that there has only been a through track since then.

Buildings

The former station building from 1877, which was occupied until 1969, is a rural-classicist type building. Today it houses a restaurant . The station ensemble includes one-story outbuildings as well as the goods shed . The area as a whole is a listed building . The platform , which has since become inoperable , also still exists.
