Berlin Wriezener Bahnhof was from 1903 initially a separate platform (Wriezener Bahnsteig) of the Silesian station and from 1924 an independent station. It is on the Eastern Railway . It got its name as the end point of the passenger trains of the Wriezener Bahn from Berlin to Wriezen . It was located immediately north of the railway facilities of the Silesian Railway Station , south of the former passenger station of the Eastern Railway and east of Fruchtstrasse (today: Street of the Paris Commune ). Passenger traffic in the station ended in 1949, freight traffic after 1990.
history
The Wriezener Bahn branching off from the Ostbahn via Werneuchen to Wriezen at Lichtenberg-Friedrichsfelde station (today: Berlin-Lichtenberg station ) was opened in 1898. The passenger trains on the line drove from Lichtenberg-Friedrichsfelde on the Ostbahn line to the Silesian station.
Shortly after the opening of the Wriezener Bahn, the railway facilities in the area between today's Ostbahnhof and Ostkreuz stations were redesigned. Suburban and long-distance tracks were separated. This meant that the long-distance tracks of the Ostbahn and Wriezener Bahn on the one hand and the Berlin Stadtbahn on the other hand were separated by the suburban tracks in between. For the long-distance trains of the Eastern Railway, the VnK line was a new connection far to the east, which could not be reached from the Wriezen Railway. Therefore, the trains of the Wriezener Bahn west of Lichtenberg used the freight tracks of the Eastern Railway north of the suburban tracks and ended in a separate part of the Silesian station. The Wriezener Bahnhof has been run as an independent station since 1924.
The name of the station lives on in the street names Wriezener Karree and Am Wriezener Bahnhof , whereby only the former has a direct spatial reference to the former Wriezener Bahnhof, while today's street Am Wriezener Bahnhof runs more where the original street Am Ostbahnhof to the south the old Ostbahnhof (the Ostbahn), which was closed to passenger traffic in 1882 .
In the summer of 2005, the unused tracks were dismantled. The Deutsche Bahn also tore down a signal box (see photo in the info box) from 1895, ignoring its monument protection . Only in the north-eastern part of the area remained a track for the former Reichsbahn repair shop "Franz Stenzer" east of the Warschauer Brücke, which is used by Talgo GmbH for the maintenance of DB Talgo trains and DB AutoZug for parking conventional night trains . A public park is currently being built north of the track. On the remaining part, a Metro wholesale store and a Hellweg hardware store were opened in September 2006 . Dämmisol Baustoffe GmbH built its new trading center behind the metro market, as the company had to leave its previous location on the BEHALA site on the south side of the Spree bank on Köpenicker Strasse due to the planning there. At the suggestion of students from Dathe-Gymnasium (Helsingforser Straße) as part of the public participation for urban development planning, a sports field for school and club sports was built on the roof of the Metro-Markt. At the end of October 2006, Deutsche Bahn announced that it would plant 55 imperial linden trees on the site as an obligation under the urban development contract .
