The Essen Süd station is a train - stop in Essen district Südviertel . The buildings of the stop are under monument protection .
history
In 1877 the Essen-Werden-Essen railway line was completed by the Bergisch-Märkische Eisenbahn-Gesellschaft .
In 1914, the south station was built on the model of Berlin suburban stations. The building ensemble is located on both sides of the low-lying tracks. The main building consists of a single-storey building with a gable roof , the street front of which is designed with columns based on classicist buildings. The outbuilding on the opposite side of the tracks is a smaller building with a hipped roof, set back from the street. Both parts of the building are connected with a closed passage.
Since 1974, the Essen Süd stop has been served by the S6 S-Bahn line.
In 1987 an entrepreneur bought the former main building of the station from the Deutsche Bundesbahn and set up a restaurant. The entire building ensemble was entered on the list of monuments of the city of Essen on April 14, 1988. At the end of 2012, a lease agreement was signed for the main building, which expired in September 2017. The building has been empty since then. It was sold privately in the summer of 2018. The bridge over the tracks and the tower-like outbuilding are owned by DB Netz AG . They were externally renovated by this in the summer of 2018, when the train traffic stopped due to a route renovation.
Todays situation
The stop is served exclusively by the Rhine-Ruhr S-Bahn in local rail passenger transport. It is located on the Essen-Werden-Essen railway line (course book route 450.6), which connects the Ruhr Valley Railway with Essen Central Station . There is a possibility to change to tram line 105 of the Essen – Oberhausen tram line , which runs to other parts of the city area as well as to the city limits of Oberhausen and is operated by the Ruhrbahn .
In the operating point directory of Deutsche Bahn , Essen Süd has the abbreviation EESD and is listed in station category 5 (local transport system stop ).
The station has two outside platforms, which are barrier-free via exits from the street.
view
To the south of the stop, bus routes 160 and 161 have so far passed the Essen Süd stop. As a belt-shaped line, these two bus lines create tangential connections between the districts in the vicinity of the city center, but have so far only been linked to the S-Bahn at the Frohnhausen stop .
In 2002, the Essen district association of Bündnis 90 / Die Grünen called for the Essen Süd stop to be linked to bus routes 160/161.
