Königs Wusterhausen station

Highlight • Rest Area

Various renovations are planned around the Königs Wusterhausen train station. These are intended to make the station more efficient and fit for the future. As commuter numbers increase, so does the need for capacity in local rail passenger transport (SPNV). With only one continuous main track for regional services, Königs Wusterhausen station is a proven bottleneck. The track layouts hinder smooth operations between regional services and the S-Bahn (commuter rail) network. Therefore, a gradual expansion of the infrastructure is being planned as part of the i2030 infrastructure expansion program (i2030.de/), and some of it is already under construction.

As a first step toward a more efficient infrastructure, a new reversing track (i2030.de/start-fuer-den-umbau-der-noerdlichen-einfahrt-zum-bahnhof-koenigs-wusterhausen/) was put into operation in 2023 in the south of the station. An additional track will be laid to the north of the station. This will allow trains from Berlin to enter track 1 simultaneously and trains heading towards Berlin to exit track 3. Construction of this subproject (i2030.de/start-fuer-den-umbau-der-noerdlichen-einfahrt-zum-bahnhof-koenigs-wusterhausen/) began in June 2025. In addition, three additional switches will be installed at the southern entrance to the station, and a freight train track will be extended to 740 meters. This will increase operational flexibility and stability while simultaneously improving the connection of the Königs Wusterhausen port to the rail network.

The complete reconstruction of Königs Wusterhausen station is also planned for a later phase. The S-Bahn and long-distance train tracks will be separated. The current crossing of S-Bahn and regional trains leads to significant timetable restrictions in both systems and is therefore to be eliminated. This is also one of the necessary prerequisites for extending the 10-minute S-Bahn service to Königs Wusterhausen. Deutsche Bahn is again expanding the Storkower Straße railway overpass as a standalone project outside of i2030. More information on the planned expansion measures can be found at: i2030.de/suedost.

Neue Mühle Lock

Highlight • Structure

According to legend, the construction of the New Mill lock was the result of princely disorientation: Elector Frederick III, later King Frederick I, got lost on a hunting trip and came to the water mill.

While eating and drinking, the miller complained about the irregular water level. Frederick reacted promptly - and in 1695 the weir and lock were built. In 1868, the new lock chamber was built next to the old one.
