history

Loerrach train station 1862

The Lörrach train station went into operation in 1862 as part of the first private railway in Baden, the Wiesentalbahn built by the Wiesenthal railway company. The route led from the Badischer Bahnhof in Basel , where a connection to the Badische Hauptbahn was established, to Schopfheim and from 1876 on to Zell . The first test drive took place on May 10, 1862, and on June 5 of the same year the route was ceremoniously opened in the presence of Grand Duke Friedrich von Baden . The location of the Lörrach train station had already been discussed controversially in advance. Technical and financial aspects ultimately led to the current location a little north of Rheinfelder Strasse (today: Wallbrunnstrasse). On January 1, 1889, the Baden state acquired the line and station. The first station building existed from 1862 until its renovation in 1905.

The freight and passenger stations used to have four interlockings, which were replaced by an electronic interlocking in 2004 . Until 2009 the station was only called Lörrach, the name was changed at the initiative of the Free Voters . At the end of 2011, a bicycle parking garage was built on the northern part of the station building.

location

The Lörrach main station is located on the eastern edge of the city center, which is accessible through the pedestrian zone, in the immediate vicinity of the former main post office on Bahnhofsplatz , the Loerrach town hall and the central bus station . As part of the urban development and after the redesign of Belchenstrasse (2013), the main station is more closely connected to the eastern part of the city. A new residential and commercial building is currently being built opposite the main train station. The opening is planned for spring 2020. The Steigenberger Hotel Stadt Lörrach was completed in 2017 in the western neighborhood . The striking skyscraper is the second tallest in the city .
