The station is served by regional transport and is also the start and end point of the "Sauschwänzle-Bahn" museum railway to Weizen.
There is also a museum here. But you can also see a lot outside, such as the historic equestrian signal box that was rescued from Rastatt and rebuilt here and some other sights from the days of the railway.
Information about the museum railway here: sauschwaenzlebahn.deThe construction of the line was largely driven forward by the military. The line, which was opened in 1890, was intended to serve as a strategic railway, colloquially known as the cannon railway, in a possible further war against France...
For the history of the railway line, I recommend: de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wutachtalbahn

A heritage railway that runs from Blumberg to Weizen. The 25 km long railway line is now a technical cultural monument of national importance. Because of its winding route, the line is popularly known as the "SAUSCHWÄNZLEBAHN" (Sauschwänzle Railway).
