Glückstadt Station

The building, constructed in 1938, is already the third station building in Glückstadt. The first station was built as a terminal station at the harbor as an extension of the line from Elmshorn. From 1845 to 1857 it was the terminus of the newly built Elmshorn-Glückstadt line. When the railway line was extended to Itzehoe in 1857, the route was routed past the old town in the east. The new station was built near the fortifications. After the barracks opened in 1937, more passengers arrived in Glückstadt and the small building was no longer sufficient. It was demolished and the current brick building with a spacious forecourt was built.

The main railway line in Schleswig-Holstein, which connects the stations Elmshorn in the south and Westerland on Sylt or Tønder as the Danish border station in the north, is called the Marschbahn.From Elmshorn, the march line runs in an arc via Glückstadt to Itzehoe.The railway line from Elmshorn to Glückstadt was opened on July 20, 1845. On August 6, 1857, the continuation of the march to Itzehoe was put into operation.
