Grunewald station building

The station was first opened in 1879 as Hundekehle station, and in 1884 it was renamed “Grunewald station”. At first it was used primarily by Grunewald day-trippers from Berlin, but from around 1900 it was increasingly used by residents of the villa colony. The station building was built in 1899 by Karl Cornelius. It is a listed building, as is the tunnel, which was built in 1884-85, together with platform 1. Platform 2 was opened in 1935. Since October 18, 1941, deportation trains to Lodz, Riga and Auschwitz left from here and from the Putlitzstrasse (Moabit freight station) and Anhalter Bahnhof stations, bringing a total of more than 35,000 Jewish Berliners to the extermination camps, where most of them were murdered. Several memorials commemorate this.

The Berlin-Grunewald train station in the Berlin district of Grunewald (Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf district) is now a station of the Berlin S-Bahn on the Wetzlarer Bahn or the extended Stadtbahn. The station includes the Hundekehle parking facility and car shed south of the S-Bahn station as well as a parking facility for passenger trains. The platforms and other buildings are now under monument protection.
