Eberswalde Hauptbahnhof is the historically most important and the only remaining train station in the urban area of Eberswalde . It was opened in the summer of 1842 far outside of the then urban area. The city fathers of Eberswalde did not want the modern railway in their city, which is why the station was built about three kilometers west of the city center in a wooded area where the Westend district is today.
history
Eberswalde was one of the first cities in Germany to have a railway. Seven years after the first German railway line Nuremberg – Fürth , the city was connected to the then still unusual and very modern railway network. It soon became clear that the expansion of the railway road to supply the city was important. In the period that followed, the city grew mainly towards the west, i.e. towards the train station, the buildings of which were designed by Friedrich Neuhaus . A wooden bridge was built over the tracks as early as 1867.
The first station bridge around 1870 was made of wood
The train station around 1905

On May 1, 1844, the following buildings and facilities were in place at Eberswalde station:
- Reception building including four service apartments
- a two-tier locomotive shed
- Water station building with Koksgelass ( coal docks )
- Half-timbered wagon and goods shed
- Coke and salt flakes
- Barn building with apartments
- a restaurant booth
Eberswalde has been a railway junction since 1866, when a railway line to Wriezen was built - extended to Frankfurt (Oder) in 1876/77 . The station building was expanded between 1866 and 1867. In 1873 a locomotive shed with eight stalls was built and the old two-track one was demolished. On January 7, 1878, the Berlin-Szczecin Railway repair shop (today's DB maintenance shop) opened its doors near the train station. In 1898 a line was built in the direction of Joachimsthal and Templin , which separated from the Stettiner Bahn in the neighboring Britz station .
Between 1906 and 1910, the station was completely redesigned for the first time. He received several platforms, a pedestrian tunnel, a large reception hall and several restaurants. In the decades that followed, Eberswalde was a popular excursion destination for Berliners, and the station restaurants were particularly popular.
Due to the construction of the Westend district, a station bridge was built in 1910 to replace a wooden bridge from 1904. After a trolleybus line had been operated for a few months in 1901 , an electric tram ran from Eberswalde to the station forecourt from 1910 to 1940 . The oldest trolleybus system in Germany that still exists today has existed in Eberswalde since 1940 .
Until around 2001, Eberswalde Hauptbahnhof remained largely in the same condition as it was in 1910, and there was hardly any modernization. The station facilities were largely in poor condition, which is why a complete renovation was carried out by 2004, in which the tunnel was moved to the north and the platforms to the south. The Eberswalde station bridge was demolished and replaced by a new building by 2006. Stairs from the platforms to the station bridge were not built this time either. Only the main building of the former train station has been preserved. An old mechanical destination indicator ("jumping jack"), which is a listed building, was put back on the platform.
